Chapter 48

Song Yu opened his eyes with great effort and listened to the voice. It was the player from the previous copy.

She glanced at the time. It was one in the morning.

Coming to see her so late...

Song Yu yawned and went to open the door. There were two people standing outside. She knew them, but she didn't know their names.

"What's the matter?"

"Is it convenient to come in and talk?"

When the two saw Song Yu coming out, they quickly pulled their masks back up.

It's really freezing cold in this weather. They were out for just a short while and their faces and hands were red and itchy.

My breath almost turned into ice.

Song Yu walked to the side and made way.

"Your room is much warmer than ours."

After entering the house, the two players took off their masks and gloves and couldn't help but sigh.

They’re all made of wood, so why is Song Yu’s house so warm? Is it because there’s an extra dog?
"what's up?"

Song Yu casually scooped two bowls of soup from the earthenware jar on the fire to warm them up. It was really a pleasure to have a bowl of hot soup in this kind of weather.

In particular, Song Yu added a lot of ingredients to his fish soup, and the bamboo fungus made the soup even more delicious.

Cheng Yue took a sip and let out a sigh.

"It's really delicious. It would be even better if it had tofu."

"I have some here, Song Yu, do you mind if I add one in?"

Ji Ming next to him immediately took out a large piece of tofu from his backpack, which was still steaming.

"I don't mind, but where did this tofu come from?"

When Song Yu saw tofu, his eyes lit up. Tofu is a good thing.

"I made it myself. Come, let's eat the scraps directly."

Ji Ming chopped up the big piece of tofu and put it into a clay pot, then took out a basin of leftovers and shared them among the three of them.

Song Yu gave half of his portion to Xiao Hei. While eating the hot tofu, Ji Ming and Cheng Yue explained their purpose.

"Has anyone entered your house?"

"How do you know?"

Song Yu looked at the two of them in surprise, feeling that something was wrong.

"It was done by a new player in this instance."

The two of them did not try to be mysterious and told Song Yu everything directly.

The main reason they came this time was to win over Song Yu, so naturally they wouldn't say half and hide the other.

"They also visited both of our houses and stole things."

The two of them don't have as many slots in their backpacks as Song Yu, and without Xiao Hei's assistance, many things cannot be put into the slots in their backpacks and can only be placed in the house.

Who knew that even a locked house could be unlocked and entered by a new player?

"You two are just going to endure this?"

Song Yu held the tofu bowl and shared some chili powder with the two of them.

It’s delicious to eat hot tofu in winter.

"We were about to take action, but we found out that they were connected to the ogres in Yuhua Town."

"You should have discovered it when you came back."

“There are fewer people.”

It is normal for people to die during cold waves, and this should not be a surprising thing.

However, when Song Yu and Xiao Hei heard Cheng Yue talking about the ogre, they had some bad guesses in their minds.

"I suspect that some of the missing players were sold to the ogres in Yuhua Town."

Cheng Yue took a deep breath and expressed his doubts.

How could they do such a beastly thing?

She claims that she is not a good person, but things like this...

Song Yu had a gloomy expression on his face. He ate tofu and drank soup quietly without saying a word.

"Ji Ming and I heard their conversation. Although it's not very clear, if they continue to sell people to the ogres, then the option lies with us old players."

Cheng Yue took out a bucket of water from the compartment of his backpack and motioned for Song Yu to take a look.

【Melted snow water】.

"This water has been drugged. You will fall down if you drink it."

"Ji Ming and I happened to be together that day. I filled the water first, and then it fell."

"If you don't believe it, just try it and you'll know."

With the support of the ogres in Yuhua Town, the group of new players acted without any scruples and did not try to hide their actions at all.

"The two of us are going to take the initiative. Are you interested?"

The two looked at Song Yu. Song Yu was strong and had a wealthy family. Most importantly, he was ruthless and decisive.

This can be seen from what happened in the previous copy.

“There is definitely interest.”

Song Yu stroked her chin thoughtfully. It seemed that her landing point was the nightmare, the Ice Lake in Yuhua Town. It was still unknown whether the name of this nightmare came from the Ice Lake or from the Yuhua Town attached to the Ice Lake.

"But we have to find out what the situation is like over there, right? Our weapons may not be better than theirs."

Song Yu looked at the two of them, and calmly served himself and each of them a bowl of fish soup filled with fish meat.

"If you are interested, shall we go and have a look together tomorrow?"

Seeing that Song Yu agreed, Cheng Yue and Ji Ming both showed joy on their faces.

This is really great.

"I'll go with you tomorrow."

"Okay, then the two of us will go back first."

Cheng Yue and Ji Ming left. Song Yu closed the door and sat down cross-legged.

"How much do you believe what they say?"

Xiao Hei lay on the ground, raised his eyelids to look at Song Yu, and asked.

"Half and half."

Song Yu stirred the remaining soup and meat in the pot, and smoke rose from the clay pot.

"We'll find out what's going on tomorrow."

She is not inferior to these two people.

It is probably true that the group of new players stole things, but the fact that they cooperated with the ogres raises a question mark.

If we talk about the best partners among this group of players, it is definitely Tang Hong and Brother Yimijiu.

He is upright, has soft spots, and will not betray easily. He seems reliable and strong.

If it is true that the new players sold the players to the ogres, given the personalities of Brother Yimijiu and his friends, they would absolutely take it upon themselves to eliminate the ogres and the traitors.

You don't have to look for her and Xiao Hei.

Song Yu and Xiao Hei are not really very good partners, because they have too little to worry about and may turn against you at any time.

It's not uncommon for the thief to cry thief.

Moreover, according to Song Yu's experience, most ogres prefer to eat children/women first, and men come later.

A new player wanted to sell people, but he didn't start with the women in his own team, Song Yu, Tang Hong and several other female players. Instead, he went after two tough men, Cheng Yue and Ji Ming?

Selling people to ogres, the bottom line is so low, will there still be friendship between companions?

Not to mention the companions who entered the game together, even in the real world, there are cases where fathers and sons turn against each other and sell out each other.

Things in the game will not be brought into reality, so what are you afraid of?
Song Yu took a look at the snow water that was not taken away by them and put it into the space.

What these two people said was full of mistakes and they really looked down on her.

Song Yu rolled his eyes, tidied up the room and went back to sleep.

Oh, what a shame, disturbing her sleep.

Song Yu wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and continued to sleep soundly.

"Go to sleep."

Xiao Hei looked at Song Yu, closed his eyes but did not fall asleep immediately.

……

At 7 o'clock in the morning on the 6th day of the game, Song Yu woke up from his sleep on time.

When she got up, Xiao Hei was no longer in the house. He must have gone up the mountain to chop firewood.

Xiao Hei is so hardworking.

Song Yu yawned, took out the breakfast ingredients from the backpack, checked the planting boxes, compost bucket and seedlings, and then started to make breakfast.

Not to mention anything else, the tofu that Ji Ming brought yesterday was really good. She didn’t know where the ingredients came from, but she also wanted to make some and put it in her backpack.

After Song Yu finished making breakfast, Xiao Hei came back with a pile of firewood. He shook off the snow on his body at the door before entering the house. As soon as he came in, he couldn't wait to share the news with Song Yu.

"I followed them last night."

Xiao Hei puffed out his chest proudly, as if to say, "Come and ask me."

"They didn't notice you?"

Song Yu was not very surprised by what Xiao Hei did, because this was something Xiao Hei would do.

"No, it was snowing really hard last night."

Not only did Xiao Hei not notice them, he also watched them all the way to their destination.

"Xiaoyu, you must not know what they are doing."

"what are you doing?"

“They are eating people.”

"???"

Song Yu, who was cooking, looked up at Xiao Hei with his eyes slightly widened.

Xiao Hei nodded affirmatively, it was eating people.

"I also went to Yuhua Town. The NPCs in Yuhua Town are not easy to deal with. They are really cannibals, but they are literally extremely vicious."

"That place is very poor."

"The missing and dead players were not eaten by the NPCs in Yuhua Town, but were locked up by those two people."

"Are there any still alive?"

"There should be one alive, and the other one had his arm chopped off by the two of them, I don't know if he's dead or not."

"There is a body and a lot of bones in that hole."

"The one who died was a young man, and the remaining two were women."

Listening to Xiao Hei's description, Song Yu couldn't help but frown.

This dungeon has only been open for 7 days, and the two of them have enough supplies on them, so they don't have to contract this kind of beastly disease in this dungeon.

The previous copy... or maybe... the real world.

It’s really creepy to think about it.

However, her guess was correct.

As expected, children and women are at the top of the ogre's food list, with men being the second best choice.

For them, age is the most important, followed by gender, and then other factors.

"After dinner, when I leave with the two of them, you go find Tang Hong and Brother Yimijiu and take them to the cave."

Song Yu bit his hand while holding the chopsticks. Considering the strength of those two people, no matter how strong the wind and snow were last night, they would not be unable to find Xiao Hei who had followed them into the cave.

It seems that the value of the thank-you gift [Winter's Favor] is still increasing.

"how about you?"

Xiao Hei asked worriedly.

"me."

Song Yu's eyes dimmed, filled with malice, but there was a bright smile on his face.

"Of course, it's like giving back in their own way~"

Compared with those two scumbags, everything Song Yu did before seemed impressive.

Since these two people are still alive today, they must be very talented, right?
"Let's eat, let's eat. We have to come back early to fish later."

Song Yu bit into the bright red strawberry, and a little red juice overflowed from his lips, just like blood.

After breakfast, Song Yu and Xiao Hei went out.

Cheng Yue and Ji Ming seemed to have been observing Song Yu's movements. When they saw Song Yu and Xiao Hei go out, they followed them out.

But neither of them called Song Yu, as if they didn't know her, and the relationship between them was very clear.

Song Yu didn't care. After saying hello to others, he went up the mountain with Xiao Hei.

Cheng Yue and Ji Ming took a detour and went up the mountain early in the morning.

They were both really cautious.

Song Yu hummed a little tune and started fishing as usual.

Today is the 7th day of the game and the temperature has reached minus 56 degrees Celsius, which is enough to freeze people to death.

Although Song Yu felt cold, he seemed to be in a better condition than the other players.

Thank you for the gift of winter.

"Song Yu!"

Cheng Yue and Ji Ming climbed up the mountain one after another, panting.

"Yo~"

Song Yu walked out of the tent and waved to them.

"You're here so early."

"Didn't you say we were going to Yuhua Town to survey the area today?"

Cheng Yue glanced at Xiao Hei beside him.

"Is Xiao Hei going too?"

"Xiao Hei won't go. He's watching here."

Song Yu knew what the two were worried about, so he followed their wishes and gave them the answer they wanted to hear.

"Ji Ming and I have found a place where we can observe the situation in Yuhua Town."

“But I guess I’ll have to squat for a long time.”

The two men's hidden gazes fell on Xiao Hei. It was really great that the dog didn't come to bother them.

"It's ok."

Song Yu waved his hand.

"You get what you pay for."

"Xiao Hei, we are leaving. You will take your things back later, okay?"

Song Yu shouted to Xiao Hei over there.

"Does it understand?"

Ji Ming looked at Song Yu in surprise. The dog didn't look like a certain breed, how could it be so powerful?
"Xiao Hei is very smart."

Song Yu smiled slightly and followed the two of them out of the Ice Lake area.

Xiao Hei watched the three people's receding backs until he could no longer see their trace. He immediately packed some things into the space, camouflaged them with barbed nets, and quickly went down the mountain.

Song Yu, who had left, followed Cheng Yue and Ji Ming to a cliff on the mountain, from where they could indeed observe the situation in Yuhua Town.

It is very close to Yuhua Town.

So close that they directly received the system's side quest notification sound.

[The player has triggered the side quest: Nightmare Town Bloody Rain Flower]

[Quest requirements: Kill all ogres in Yuhua Town (1000/1000)]

[Reward: Get 1 bonus for each ogre killed, and get 1 backpack grid card for every 10 ogres killed.]

"..."

"..."

"..."

This side quest came so unexpectedly that the three were speechless.

"What an unexpected surprise!"

Song Yu spoke with a smile.

“It was indeed a pleasant surprise.”

Cheng Yue and Ji Ming were in mixed feelings. They didn't expect that a side quest would suddenly pop up.

This completely disrupted their plans!
However, the rewards for this mission are punctual and generous.

They were so rich that they were speechless.

Forget it, let’s complete the mission first and then kill Song Yu!
Then I can just push it to the cannibal in Yuhua Town.

A thousand ogres are beyond the reach of the two of them.

"It seems we need to observe the situation carefully here and try to wipe out all the ogres in Yuhua Town."

"Here, drink water."

Song Yu sighed, took out a pot of hot water and a stool from the backpack compartment, and poured a cup for each person.

"I don't know how well-equipped they are. A whole town of ogres is terrifying just to think about it."

"Thanks."

The two took the hot water and drank it without any precautions while Song Yu kept chattering.
