The End of Ten Days: When Qi Xia Enters the Tales of Rules

When Lin Yi woke up from the world of ghost stories, he found himself in front of a little boy.

"Brother, you're awake."

Lin Yi hurriedly sat up and found himself lying on a large bed.

A large group photo hangs above the bed.

There are four people in the photo: a middle-aged man, a middle-aged woman, Lin Yi, and a little boy.

Lin Yi was slightly surprised. This copy was so realistic that even his own photo was clearly generated on it.

"Brother, I've made you some herbal medicine. Drink it while it's hot."

The little boy pointed to a bowl of dark, murky herbal medicine on the bedside table and said sincerely.

Lin Yi glanced at the bowl of herbal soup; it was sticky and gooey, with several black worms wriggling inside.

Are you kidding me? How could anyone survive drinking this?

At the same time, a metallic sound also rang in Lin Yi's mind:

"Welcome to The Lie Game."

"This instance of the game will last 72 hours."

"Instance Quest: Kill the Liar (Non-Human)"

"Instance rule: The deceased cannot kill the murderer."

"Instance Hint: You live in a warm and loving family of four, with harmonious family life and loving parents. Your younger brother idolizes you as his older brother and obeys your every word. Perhaps you can discover some clues from your younger brother."

After reading the dungeon description, Lin Yi was a little confused.

What nonsense is this?

Professional matters should be handled by professionals.

Without the slightest hesitation, he directly recited the key phrase from "The End of Ten Days".

next moment.

A tall figure seemed to have crossed the void and descended in front of Lin Yi.

Who else could it be but Qi Xia?

After quickly scanning her surroundings, Qi Xia's gaze fell on Lin Yi.

"here it is?"

Lin Yi was immediately excited, not expecting that he could actually summon Qi Xia, and hurriedly explained:

"This is the world of ghost stories!"

Qi Xia raised an eyebrow and said flippantly, "The world of ghost stories?"

Lin Yi hurriedly shared the copy information with Qi Xia.

"Oh? A game of lies."

After reading the instance information, Qi Xia calmly said, "You mean, I can only exist for three hours."

The countdown started the moment Qi Xia appeared.

Exactly three hours.

Lin Yi asked with some concern, "Is three hours enough time to complete this instance?"

The instance was originally scheduled to last for three days, but Qi Xia's existence could only last for three hours, which made Lin Yi somewhat unsure.

"It's unusable."

These three simple words sound like heavenly music.

This extreme confidence made Lin Yi exclaim that he hadn't chosen the wrong keyword.

Viewers watching the live stream saw Lin Yi use the gold-tier abbreviation as soon as he entered the dungeon and started cursing him.

"No way, is this guy an idiot? He used up all the gold-tier modifiers as soon as he entered the dungeon?"

"Golden affixes are meant to be used in crucial moments. Lin Yi used his golden affix right at the start; isn't he just waiting to die?"

"Wait, hasn't he studied the glossary of key terms? How could he be so reckless?"

"We're doomed. We thought that with three candidates this time, they would bring us a surprise, but it's the same as always. Sigh..."

"Xia Fei and Cheng Le, both top-tier gold affixes, are trapped in the dungeon. What use is his level 3 gold affix? He can just watch the show."

……

Questions, insults, and expressions of resentment...

More voices of concern were heard.

They were all worried about what to do if they failed this trick test.

Their physical condition has been steadily declining, and they can no longer endure it.

It's not just a matter of physical condition; I've also had terrible luck over the years.

All of this is related to the decline in the nation's fortune.

Some people fainted on the spot from anxiety upon seeing how disappointing the three candidates were.

……

In the instance, ever since Qi Xia appeared, the family photo hanging above the bed has also changed.

From a family of four, they went directly to a family of five.

Obviously.

Qi Xia's appearance brought about subtle changes to this instance.

The "family of four" mentioned in the dungeon prompt has changed to "family of five".

The little boy's way of addressing people had changed: "Big brother, second brother, you're awake."

The eldest brother he mentioned refers to Qi Xia, and the second brother naturally refers to Lin Yi.

The little boy pointed to the bowl of herbal soup on the bedside table: "Big brother, second brother, drink this soup. I carefully prepared it for you."

Lin Yi glanced at the disgusting bowl of medicine again, placing all his hopes on Qi Xia.

With Qi Xia here, we can leave everything to him.

Even if he analyzes it, he won't be able to figure anything out.

Qi Xia glanced at the bowl of dark, murky medicine and said indifferently, "You think this stuff is drinkable?"

The little boy said defiantly, "Of course I can drink it! I brewed it with great care. If my two older brothers don't like it, they have to give me a big truck."

The task was clear: either drink the medicine or find a big truck to deliver it to the little boy.

But this is a world of ghost stories, where are we going to find a big truck?

The only solution to this task might be to endure the nausea and drink the herbal soup.

Qi Xia looked at the little boy: "Do you like trucks?"

"Of course I would love it!" the little boy said longingly. "I would be so happy if you could give me a truck."

Qi Xia then asked, "You said you carefully prepared this bowl of herbal soup, right?"

The little boy nodded.

The next second, Qi Xia didn't hesitate at all. She picked up the bowl of medicine and poured it over the little boy's head.

This move surprised Lin Yi.

The viewers watching the live stream were also taken aback.

"What's going on? Has Qi Xia gone mad? It's one thing for him not to drink the medicine, but why did he pour it on the little boy's head?"

"Are you tired of living? That's an NPC from the ghost story world. If you anger it, even a god can't save you."

"Sigh! A level 3 gold attribute is just a level 3 gold attribute; the 'warrior' summoned is nothing but a complete idiot."

"Everyone, please step back a bit, what's about to happen might be a little gory. The little boy is definitely going to eat these two alive!"

……

The little boy was also a bit stunned when he saw Qi Xia's actions.

He was doused with the dark, murky medicine, and dark, worm-like creatures crawled out of it and burrowed into his nostrils and ears.

This disgusting scene caused many viewers to vomit.

Good heavens, thank goodness I didn't drink that stuff. If I had, I would have been in serious trouble.

Although Lin Yi didn't quite understand Qi Xia's behavior, he still had absolute confidence in Qi Xia.

Qi Xia must have his reasons for doing this.

Qi Xia looked at the little boy: "Do you like it?"

The little boy excitedly licked his lips, and an insect took the opportunity to crawl into his mouth.

"like."

The next moment, the little boy excitedly uttered two words.

"Ding! System notification: You have gained favor with your younger brother. Your rating will increase after the dungeon is completed."

Upon seeing these bright red words, viewers watching the live stream were filled with question marks.
