Ten million?!

This isn't about 10,000 or 100,000 yuan; that's not something you can easily do.

When that enormous number was thrown down, the surrounding air seemed to fall silent.

The fat monk was also taken aback.

That's ten million...

"If ten million isn't enough, how about twenty million?"

Xi Jin spoke slowly, his eyes, which shone like black jade, remained unchanged, and he didn't pay much attention to the person opposite him throughout the entire conversation.

【what? 】

[Isn't this supposed to be 20 million? Why does this kid sound like I'm talking about 20 yuan?]

[Change the channel! Where did this "CEO romance" channel come from? I clearly requested a sweet romance/horror show! Who switched me to this CEO romance channel? Change it back right now! We poor people can't afford this!]

Was it supposed to be twenty million? My ears hadn't even heard clearly before my heart started pounding. Is this what they call a broken mirror mended? My heart recognized you before I could even hear it...

【I'm really going to fight you rich people to the death, waaaaaah!】

"want!"

While the fat monk was still in a daze, a blank voice suddenly came from behind her.

"We need...we need twenty million! We're short of money...I heard yesterday that we won't even have enough money to buy water next month..."

The fat monk turned around and saw that the person standing behind him was actually the thin monk. His eyes widened, and he stared blankly, ready to continue speaking.

The fat monk's face darkened, and he interrupted the other person, "Fool, I know!"

But Nanxi discovered something.

Buy water?

Does this mean that the water needed by Jing Shui Ancient Temple has to be purchased from outside?

Upon closer inspection, it seems that no ancient well has been seen in the vicinity.

"Since this benefactor is willing to contribute a small amount of money for incense and oil to Buddha, then this humble monk is not unwilling to grant your small request. You two may stay here any longer; this humble monk will take his leave now."

Upon seeing the thin monk, the fat monk's composure vanished instantly. After hurriedly finishing his words, he pulled the thin monk away, seemingly wanting to discuss something privately.

"Um?"

Xi Jin was about to take the woman's soft hand and continue, just like before, but the woman's fingers stopped.

He turned to look at her, his eyes crinkling as he asked, "Does Xiaoxi have any new ideas?"

"That's right, before going to the library, there's a place I'd rather go now."

The woman's dark, bright eyes shone exceptionally brightly, like a child who had discovered a fun toy and was now catching their prey, gazing in the direction the thin monk had just left.

Xi Jin simply smiled indulgently: "Is it because of the smell on those two monks?"

"Yes." Nanxi nodded.

The fat monk's smell was actually not bad.

When the thin monk arrived, he carried a strong smell of blood.

If Nanxi remembers correctly, the fat and thin monks have been mainly in charge of their group of "meditation" clients these past two days.

Does this mean...?

Something happened over there?

……

"How could you... have become like this?!"

Finally finding some free time, Song Miaomiao had a chance to talk to the other members of her team.

When I woke up this morning, there were far fewer people living in that place. Among the NPCs, only a gloomy old woman named Xiaohua remained.

Not only that, Sun Bai had a huge wound on his chest, Wu San's arm was injured, and as for Passerby A, he had dark circles under his eyes and looked extremely listless.

And Nanxi, the captain they just voted for last night, has completely disappeared without a trace today!

This must mean they have already been murdered...

"Nanxi is fine."

The passerby didn't explain that his dark circles were from chatting about gossip all night, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep!

Not to mention, she also knew that Qiuqiu was nearby watching, and was hoping to find an opportunity to get some more information out of her...

cough cough...

No, this is a crucial time. No matter how much information there is, I need to survive in this instance world first. Only by surviving can I bring all the gossip I've heard out!

The others noticed that the previously exhausted passerby's eyes suddenly lit up, and he eagerly asked, "Sun Bai, Wu San, what happened to you two last night? Can you tell me?"

last night……

Sun Bai nodded, his lips pale and his eyes dark. "Last night I encountered a strange shadowy figure. I could have avoided the danger, but the door latch was broken. This unexpected event allowed the ghostly figure to enter the room, and I was suddenly attacked..."

If it weren't for this accident, his strength wouldn't have been so easily damaged.

Wu San immediately nodded in agreement.

Sun Bai closed his eyes tightly for a moment, took a deep breath, opened them, and said resolutely, "I can confirm that I checked the door latch beforehand, and no one entered the room after I went in."

What does this mean?

Passerby A quickly spoke up: "You mean, testing the bolt showed it was broken using an abnormal method?"

If it wasn't man-made, then only...

The gazes of several people turned in unison towards the direction of the main hall not far away.

It seemed as if the golden Buddha could be seen from a great distance.

Passerby A couldn't help but fall into thought.

Was it really a ghost that made the move? Although this is a five-star dungeon, they had hardly encountered any unusual forces in the previous two days.

The only thing that might be related to that power is making a wish...

"I saw it."

Just then, Xiaohua's voice suddenly appeared in everyone's ears.

A passerby looked over and realized that while the group was chatting, Xiao Hua had somehow appeared not far away, her body twisted into a C-shape, looking over in an extremely eerie posture. Coupled with her grayish-white and gloomy face, it was hard to tell whether she was a human or a ghost.

[That startled me.]

It's truly heartbreaking. She was such a lovely little girl, how did she end up like this?

[This is actually a true reflection of what it's like for ordinary people like us when we enter a dungeon. Only those exceptionally skilled players can survive, while the rest of us are gradually worn down and molded into this state of distorted understanding and mindset.]

Upon closer reflection, everyone present actually possessed intelligence and physical abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people, with Nanxi being practically superhuman...

We're just online friends; you've crossed the line.

Xiao Hua simply watched them quietly, her eyes flashing with a chilling light, and spoke without any emotion.

"I saw it, Song Miaomiao and Nanxi went to the main hall."

Did the two go to the main hall?

At this point, it was still unknown whether anyone else had gone to the main hall, but without a doubt, Nanxi and Song Miaomiao, who had been mentioned, became the targets.

It makes one wonder, did the two go to the main hall to make a wish?

At this moment, Song Miaomiao immediately jumped up: "I clearly saw you walk out of the main hall!"

"yes."

Xiaohua bluntly stated, "I came out of the main hall because I made a wish to Buddha. Before, I looked like I was about to die, but now I look a little younger. Didn't you know that?"

Song Miaomiao was speechless.

That's right.

Everyone knew that Xiaohua went to the main hall to make a wish, which was completely different from what happened when they went in themselves.

At this moment, Xiaohua laughed sinisterly: "And what about you? What were you doing back then? If you weren't going to the main hall, how would you have seen me? It doesn't make any sense at all."

"I……"

Song Miaomiao realized that she now truly understood what it meant to be speechless. Faced with the strange looks from those around her, she couldn't utter a single word.

Xiao Hua, however, seemed to be experiencing some twisted pleasure from it; her eyes bulged out, and she spoke with an extremely ferocious expression: "And Nanxi too!"

Nanxi disappeared this morning.

Based on her observations over the past two days, the people who disappeared in the past two days will not reappear. Although the person called Passerby A said that Nanxi is still safe, Xiaohua simply does not believe it.

"Although Nanxi is dead now, you have no idea why she went to the chief investigator, right? But since Nanxi is dead, I still suggest you focus your attention on Song Miaomiao, otherwise tonight it might not just be injuries, but several people dying!"

Xiao Hua spoke in a very fierce tone, as if she wished she could eat Song Miaomiao's flesh and then drink her blood!

"Really?" someone asked doubtfully.

Xiaohua nodded fiercely, but after only halfway through her action, she realized something and turned her head away.

At the entrance.

A woman with black hair as smooth as seaweed, having shed her drab monk's robe and donning a black dress with embroidered prints, finally revealed her true feminine charm.

Behind the woman stood a tall figure in a suit, beside Nanxi, like a knight, a king, a loyal guardian.

Nanxi met everyone's gaze with an exceptionally bright smile: "I heard I'm dead?"
