Chapter 16 Puppet Tourist Town (14)

In the center of the theater on the first floor, the opera words on the stage became more and more sad as they sang. Although the specific lyrics could not be heard clearly, they sent chills down the spine. The aroma of food coming from the canteen became stronger and stronger, leaving only one thought in people's minds - —

I am so hungry and want to eat. The food there is more delicious than I have ever eaten in my life.

The canteen did not provide dinner, so they had to work until night hungry.

Su Yun did it because he didn't have enough money, Fang Yi was worried that there was something wrong with the food sold in the tourist town, and Song Xiaoling was worried about the progress of learning the silk puppet, wishing that one day would turn into two days, and had no intention of going out to eat.

The theater staff urged again: "Hurry up, you new comers don't know, this is a weekly extra meal for employees, and the cafeteria will be closed soon, why are you standing there, why don't you come and queue up." His expression Friendly and natural.

The stomachs of the three of them rumbled in unison, and then they looked at each other in confusion. They were not embarrassed by the loud rumbles, but rather uncontrollably shaking and struggling.

Song Xiaoling was the first to lose control. When she stopped and turned around, Su Yun and Fang Yi pulled her back, almost forcing Song Xiaoling to run away. Song Xiaoling was tempted by the scent and lost her mind, struggling constantly.

Behind them, the faces of the theater employees were gloomy and twisted. The lights in the cafeteria flickered a few times. In between flickers, the clothes on the theater employees melted into a dark color like mucus, covering their whole bodies. Their dark figures gradually lengthened. It was exactly The group of puppeteers who chased Su Yun last night raised to the height of the ceiling above their heads, then turned into puppets again and slowly faded into the wall.

After the strange puppeteer disappeared, the lights in the cafeteria went out, and several green-headed flies flew into the cafeteria.

Song Xiaoling weighed nearly a hundred kilograms anyway, and her frantic struggling movements with all her strength made Su Yun and Fang Yi's running movements very difficult. There were fine beads of sweat on their foreheads until they ran to where they could see the central building. On the stage, Song Xiaoling stopped struggling.

Her rationality returned, and she felt frightened for a while. She apologized to Su Yun and Fang Yi with a pale face, and was very grateful that these two people did not abandon her.

Fang Yi's expression was gentle, and he did not blame Song Xiaoling, and told Song Xiaoling that in such a situation, she must try to control her desire, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.

Song Xiaoling responded guiltily. In the deserted theater at night, the singing was still going on. The sound came from the direction of the stage. The strange thing was that there was nothing on the stage. The stage was empty, and there was no one in the guest seats. Song Xiaoling's face turned paler. The sound of the opera made her scalp numb and she wanted to tremble.

This place was too weird to stay for a long time. Just when the two of them were about to leave, their footsteps suddenly stopped in unison.

The two looked at Su Yun, Fang Yi's expression was solemn, Song Xiaoling's almond-shaped eyes were wide open, her expression was extremely frightened, she pointed behind Su Yun, and said tremblingly: "Su, Sister Su... back, back, back - "

Su Yun noticed something was wrong behind her when she opened her mouth. It seemed that someone was lying behind her. It was not the weight of a normal human being. It was light, cold and stiff. She was twisting her head little by little. She could hear the sound of old clockwork. There was a clicking sound, and dry hair was floating around her face.

Su Yun froze, two hands were pressing on her shoulders, and the cold wooden touch slowly touched her face.

Song Xiaoling covered her mouth to prevent the uncontrollable screams from spilling out of her throat. Fang Yi looked solemn. The monster in front of him clearly looked like the theater owner, most likely the dungeon boss. He wanted to escape from here for a moment.

I don't have a puppet, and it's too late to rush over if I can control it. If I use Song Xiaoling now, I have already spent a lot of energy cultivating it for a period of time. It is very uneconomical to use it like this without skills and props.

But he doesn't want to give up a puppet like Su Yun who suits his heart.

On that side, Yan An's fair and handsome face was completely exposed under the hood. His expression was very serious, and he was watching the show seriously.

Fang Yi looked at Yan An, and finally took out his weapon from the system panel. He couldn't let Yan An get a big advantage in the end. He decided to look again, holding the knife in one hand, and protecting Song Xiaoling behind him. He looked warily at the puppet behind Su Yun.

Su Yun was vigilant and did not dare to move. She glanced around, observing everything around her that could be used to defend herself and solve the current predicament. However, there was none. The nearest long pillar, the distant seat, and the table were not what she was looking for. It was possible to use it, but it was impossible to throw her over the shoulder. Those hands were still touching her face, so maybe she didn't fall, and she died first.

The thing behind her didn't seem to have murderous intentions. She touched Su Yun's face and turned Su Yun's head to face the stage.

What came into view was that the string string opera was still being sung on the stage. In the firelight, the puppets danced and knelt down over and over again, and then turned into ashes. The puppeteer in the opera laughed loudly, and the laughter gradually became distorted and hideous.

Fang Yi and Song Xiaoling were still looking at Su Yun, wary of the monster behind Su Yun, for fear that it would make some move to hurt Su Yun, but they didn't seem to notice the puppet show on the stage.

Su Yun was silent. This felt like a single-player mission in a multiplayer game. The mission plot was only visible to the person who accepted the mission, and it had a shielding effect on other players, so they could not see it.

But I can see the puppet Aya.

"I don't like this ending." When the puppet Aya said this, he still said every word, and his voice was faint and resentful.

Her head poked out to a length that could not be explained by medicine. A pair of dark eyes quickly moved up and down and left and right with their own thoughts, and then settled in the direction of Su Yun. The corners of her mouth opened in a wide arc, "You prepared it." What’s the ending?”

Su Yun got goosebumps, and the sweat that hadn't dried yet broke out again.

She forced herself to calm down and said, "When you're ready, you go down first."

The puppet Aya smiled faintly and retreated slowly, and then slowly walked towards the center seat. Her head turned, but her body remained unchanged. She turned her head 180 degrees, looked at Su Yun, and urged Said: "What's the ending?"

The more dangerous the situation, the more Su Yun forced herself to maintain inner calm. She breathed out to adjust her heartbeat that was too fast, and then stepped forward with a very calm face. The head of the puppet Aya followed Su. Yun's movements slowly returned to their original position.

Song Xiaoling saw Su Yun walking towards the stage. Although there was no sound from the stage, the terrifying puppet was sitting in the middle of the guest seats. Voice: "Sister Su! Don't go -"

When the puppet Aya heard the sound, she rolled her eyes and stared at Song Xiaoling with malice. Song Xiaoling was so scared that Song Xiaoling took a step back and subconsciously moved closer to Fang Yi to seek a sense of security.

Su Yun concluded that they really couldn't see the puppets on the stage.

[Puppet's Wish] is indeed a single-player mission.

Even if Fang Yi and others wanted to help her, they couldn't do much.

Su Yun shook his head at Song Xiaoling and said, "You go back first, I have something else to do."

The mission time limit is three days and three chances. There is a high probability that the puppet Aya will not attack her. There is no need for Song Xiaoling and the others to take risks.

Fang Yi and others insisted on waiting for her to go back together, which touched Su Yun's heart.Anyone who accepts kindness will be moved, not to mention that Song Xiaoling is really worried about her sincerely.

Su Yun paused slightly when looking at Yan An.

Yan An's eyes seemed to be falling on the puppets on the stage. He seemed to be different from Fang Yi and the other two.

Su Yun withdrew her gaze and stepped onto the stage, picking up the puppets that had returned to their original state. She tried to operate two puppets at once. Although they were unfamiliar, they were not impossible to watch.

Su Yun's calm expression was a little awkward. In the audience was not only the puppet Aya, but also three living people. This was the first time she had learned to sing a tune she had heard before. Fortunately, her voice condition was excellent, so her singing skills were not bad. It's ugly, just a little out of tune. It's not as good as an experienced puppeteer, with multiple puppets and singing.

Yan An in the audience was watching intently, while Fang Yi and Song Xiaoling were still vigilant, for fear of something unexpected happening. In their eyes, they could only see Su Yun's fingers moving, making movements in the air, as if they were fucking a puppet. Also singing a dramatic tune.Song Xiaoling was a little surprised.

Under this situation, no one noticed Fang Yi's complicated expression. Under the speculation in his mind, there was a bit of madness and ruthlessness deep in his eyes.

If Su Yun's mission is to drop skills related to operating puppets, then he can't keep them.

Aya, the puppet in the audience, had no reaction to Su Yun's not-so-good puppetry and singing. She focused on the story on stage and seemed to only want to see the ending she wanted.

Su Yun originally planned to go to the hospital tomorrow to see if there were any relevant clues about the puppets in the hospital. Maybe he would trigger the [Puppet's Wish] mission just like going to the third floor.

Only in this way can it be considered coherent and stable enough.

I just didn't expect to have to perform compulsorily.

Su Yun could only make up a happy ending for he. In the play, the puppeteer was no longer in poverty. He took his beloved puppets to perform in various places, accepted apprentices, opened a theater, and passed down the silk puppets. The puppet became more alive under the careful care of the puppeteer. Even if the puppeteer eventually passed away, it was not burned. It was entrusted to the puppeteer's disciples before he died. In the arms of the puppeteer, he accompanied the puppeteer through the last journey of his life.

The puppeteer's disciples will then take good care of the puppet and pass it on from generation to generation.The story ends here.

Su Yun felt uneasy, and the mission prompt did not sound.

The puppet Aya's movements in the audience were still. It took a long time before she moved. The sad look on her face faded away, and a look of yearning appeared on her face.

Su Yun was a little surprised. Just when she thought that the accidental collision had actually produced the ending that the puppet Aya wanted, the latter stood up, with a resentful look on her face again.

The puppet Aya said: "This is not the story I want." Her voice was sharp and harsh, forcing everyone present to cover their ears.

With a "buzz" sound, the figure of the puppet Aya grew wildly and became extremely huge. The body squeezed the tables and chairs in front of the stage. Two lines of blood and tears fell from her eyes. She slowly lay down like a lag. The huge body Her body was about the same size as the stage. She was supporting the ground with one hand and grabbing the stage with the other. As she moved, a fishy smell hit her face. Her mouth was wide open, and it was dark inside, like an endless abyss.

"This is not the story I want!"

"This is not the story I want!"

A huge sense of oppression came towards Su Yun. Su Yun's eyes widened unconsciously, and her heart beat so fast that it seemed to burst her chest. Song Xiaoling's frightened screams that could no longer be suppressed came from her ears, as well as system prompts. sound--

[The player's mental state has declined, his mental value is -1, his mental value is -1...]

[The player's mental value continues to decrease, please pay attention to your mental state. 】

Su Yun was originally fighting on the inside of the stage, unable to escape at all. At the critical moment when he was about to be caught by the puppet hand, Su Yun said: "I will come again tomorrow!"

The puppet Aya paused, and Su Yun said again: "I'll show you the story you want."

The huge eyes of the puppet Aya turned and moved down, so close that Su Yun seemed to be able to see the lines of the wood covered by the black ink. She did not speak, her expression was resentful, but also strangely calm.

Su Yun pretended to be calm and looked directly at the puppet Aya, "Didn't you say there are three chances? There are two more."

The puppet Aya grinned, and slowly disappeared from the stage. The surroundings returned to silence, and the voices of Song Xiaoling and others could be heard.

While Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief, his legs couldn't stop being weak and trembling. The hand holding the back wall of the stage was weak and weak, and he slowly slid down. His eyes looked at the stage under his feet, but his heart felt calmer than ever before.

This is a true horror game - one that can kill you if you're not careful.

The first one to run to the stage was Song Xiaoling. She rushed up and hugged Su Yun, "Sister Su, are you okay?" She choked with sobs.

Su Yun came to his senses, patted Song Xiaoling on the back and said, "Relax, you're choking me."

Song Xiaoling let go of her hand after hearing this. She looked at Su Yun with red eyes, "I'm sorry, Sister Su, I'm just worried about you. Just now..." At this point, she couldn't continue.

The puppet that suddenly became huge completely refreshed her cognition and frightened this little girl who originally lived in peacetime and was a flower of the motherland. Xu Mengmeng was not here, and the strength she pretended to be was long gone.

She was worried about this beautiful sister who had unleashed kindness on her.

Su Yun curled his lips soothingly, "I'm fine."

Fang Yi followed Song Xiaoling with a worried look on his face, "Miss Su, are you okay?"

Su Yun shook his head, and Fang Yi stretched out his hand to try to give her a hand. Su Yun politely refused and stood up supporting the stage.

As soon as he got up, he saw Yan An standing in front of him. This man had his arms crossed, his expression unchanged, and he seemed to be looking at her with a trace of confusion.

It's a confusion that she shouldn't be so weak.

Su Yun's eyebrows twitched, she must have seen it wrong.

Fang Yi praised: "Miss Su is very brave."

His eyes moved slightly, "Did Miss Su do some task just now?"

Su Yun was silent, then nodded.

Fang Yi smiled, "Is it a skill mission? Or is it a mission where props drop? Miss Su is really the leader among newcomers in this dungeon. Although the skill missions in advanced dungeons are difficult, correspondingly, the skills or props dropped , the level will not be low level."

Su Yun blinked, wondering why this person suddenly mentioned it when he didn't tell the players about the details of the game at the beginning.

She raised an elegant smile and said, "Thank you for telling you this, Mr. Fang, I don't know much either."

Then he looked at the knife in Fang Yi's hand and asked curiously: "This is it?"
