After being poisoned by mushrooms, all the strange creatures became fascinated by me.

"May Teacher Li bless you, your faithful daughter Tang Li is willing to offer a balanced diet of meat and vegetables throughout her life in exchange for your sweet dreams and long sleep."

Tang Li clasped her hands together and prayed devoutly, already secretly engaging in illicit sexual worship behind the backs of her "mad dog" brothers and sisters.

With the help of many little pear figures, she made several exquisite little pillows with patterns painted on them, and thoughtfully stuffed them with some cotton.

Then he lit a small fire and burned the little pillows.

Tang Li knew that "adults" liked to sleep, and the inspiration came from the room that the hospital had inexplicably provided to her before, a luxurious king-size bed room with stacked bed curtains and various fabrics embroidered with gold thread that shone brightly.

The intention behind this attempt to curry favor is obvious.

As for the phrase "Do Not Disturb," which surprised the audience and seemed to fit the adult's personality, it was actually Tang Li's own agenda: she certainly hoped that they wouldn't disturb this adult, as she wanted to hide under this title and swindle for a while longer!

at the same time.

Somewhere, several worlds away.

Its enormous body lay coiled like a mountain range, and if it weren't for the rise and fall of its body accompanied by breathing, no one would realize that it was a huge creature in deep slumber.

The wisps of smoke, like a waterfall, meandered from one end of its body to the other.

Amidst the endless, sky-reaching smoke, various precious lights swirled, transforming into one rare and exquisite piece after another, scattered across the ground. The crisp sound of pearls and jade colliding was incessant, yet it received not even a glance, merely becoming white noise to lull one to sleep.

The smoke is the incense burned by believers, and the treasures are the devout offerings of believers.

And at that moment, "thump, thump, thump".

Three distinct sounds rang out in succession.

Three soft, intricately patterned pillows, like three plump white buns, rolled out of the smoke and onto the floor covered in gold and jade.

If the golden jade and precious stones possessed sentience, they too would mock their poverty. But the enormous creature, seemingly tired from sleep, gently swayed its tail and landed on the soft, fluffy pillow.

Its tail paused slightly.

The tail solemnly rolled up the three pillows and placed them neatly.

The enormous creature did not open its eyes. It changed its position, rested its head on the three tiny pillows, and fell asleep again, breathing evenly.

Wisps of smoke curled and swirled endlessly. Only countless rare treasures remained, still whispering amongst themselves in anger and resentment.

Tang Li still hadn't slept.

Who could bear to sleep? Tang Li surfed the internet recklessly, just like a high school student who had just returned home after being locked up at school for a month and was on her only day off.

She had been browsing the system store for two hours and then spent another hour browsing the system forum.

Nannan should be glad she didn't know about the weird live-streaming system for the past few days. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so bored as to ask Gu Xiaomei for her phone, and she certainly wouldn't have been so obsessed with a pixelated game.

She didn't go to the restaurant until lunchtime to meet up with her two accomplices... her companions.

Tang Li carried the tray through a variety of players who were subtly watching her. Jiang Hui and Qiu Wanting in the corner were already waving at her, but Tang Li suddenly stopped walking, put down the tray, and abruptly sat down at the table next to her.

Jiang Hui & Qiu Wanting: ?

The skinny man was so frightened he almost cried while clutching the tray.

Tang Li sat opposite the skinny man, a smile playing on her lips, her tone leisurely: "Oh, isn't this my little brother?"

The skinny man stammered, "Y-yes... Good afternoon!"

After realizing she was in a bizarre instance, Tang Li was able to explain many of the strange things she hadn't understood before, such as the skinny man's inexplicable fawning and awe towards her.

She could hardly imagine what terrifying image she had in the minds of these people or the supernatural, but that didn't stop her from using it.

"Why haven't you come to see me lately?" Tang Li asked, stirring her porridge.

"There are too many people around you..." The skinny man was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I can't squeeze in."

This is the same reason that Gu Xiaomei gave before.

"Don't be afraid, be brave, you came first." Tang Li casually encouraged him, not really caring what the skinny guy would do next. "I want to confirm something with you."

"About that key... Dr. Jiang asked you to give it to me, right?"

That key led Tang Li to "104" in her dream, where she saw the key that Nannan had been hurt by Qi Cuiming.

Just now, while browsing the forum, Tang Li saw in a popular science post that this key is a red clue—red represents high risk.

In addition, the clues given by low-level dungeons are often flashbacks of the memories of key characters in the dungeon. Tang Li had always thought that Nannan was being chased because of what happened that night, but now it seems that it was just Nannan's memory being reproduced in the dungeon, which may have happened a long time ago.

However, the missing 104 is still an important exploration location, and Tang Li is unwilling to give up easily.

The skinny man nodded sullenly, then explained in a panic, "No, it's not what you think... I thought it was something good, that's why I gave it to you... I, I didn't know..."

"It's alright, I wasn't injured, so it definitely helped me." Tang Li didn't really care whether the skinny man meant her any harm, but upon hearing this, she still put an orange on his plate to calm him down. "Has Dr. Jiang contacted you again since then?"

The skinny man stared at the orange: "There aren't any left..." He actually looked down on me.

Tang Li thought about it. She hadn't encountered any danger that night, and she guessed that Gu Xiaoying had played a significant role in that. The key was long gone, and excluding the possibility that the red clue was a one-time use item, it was most likely taken by Gu Xiaoying.

He took it because he didn't want to give it to her.

Tang Li inwardly pursed her lips, pulled a pen from her pocket, and began sketching on a tissue. With just a few strokes, a key with a 104 label and transparent tape appeared on the paper.

She pushed the tissue towards the skinny man: "Think back, was this the key?"

The skinny man looked at the tissue hesitantly; it looked very similar. He was about to answer yes, but then he suddenly stopped.

He had always thought the key was a trophy he had snatched from the hands of the supernatural. He had gazed at the key with pride so many times that he knew it better than its owner and user.

The skinny man pointed to the position of 104 with his short, flat fingertip: "There is a short horizontal line in front of this 1."

A short horizontal line? Tang Li tried to recall, but couldn't remember at all. But what could a short horizontal line represent? Many people even have this habit of adding a stroke before writing numbers.

unless……

Tang Li's hand paused, and her eyes widened suddenly.

Unless it wasn't a short horizontal line at all.

That's a negative sign.

-104, underground 104.

The sudden realization of the impending battle, accompanied by an adrenaline rush, swept through his entire body.

The place she was searching for but couldn't find was on the hospital's basement level.
