Chapter 47 Water Monster

The room was so quiet that there was no sound at all. Yun Jiao was hiding under the quilt, timidly. She only had a bag with her and didn't even have any self-defense equipment.

Ahem, there's no difference between confronting him head-on and seeking death, so it's better to just hide honestly.

[Host, that thing is gone.] The system, which is also a piece of trash, reminded.

I felt guilty for being so useless and unable to do anything except relaying the situation to the host.

After hearing this, Yun Jiao pulled down the quilt a little. Her face was covered with a layer of powder because it was steamed by the hot water, and a few strands of hair were wet and stuck to her forehead.

She looked around the room warily. Apart from the wooden floor that was soaked by water, there was indeed nothing unusual. The damp and cold smell was gone too.

She pinched the quilt and thought, this thing is quite polite by not attacking the person hiding under the quilt?
Yun Jiao looked at the puddle of water on the floor and recalled the wet and cold feeling on her face.

"Is that thing a water ghost? Or a water monster?"

The system said weakly to its finger, "I'm sorry, host. I can't see it either."

The host and the system were both useless, but neither of them despised the other. Yun Jiao touched the system's head to comfort it and simply sorted out the clues.

The water monster appears in the background of the dungeon, in the words of the villagers in the fishing village.

For the villagers, they cannot catch seafood and people often die when going out to sea because there are sea monsters in the sea. They are afraid and in awe of them, but they have to please the monsters in order to survive.

So the villagers came up with the idea of ​​offering sacrifices.

Although some villagers still had accidents when going out to sea, at least they could bring back some seafood.

Perhaps because too many people died in the village, the villagers gradually discovered that at night, those who had died came back in a different form...

All in all, the water monster has never really appeared, and it seems to exist only in the villagers' mouths, which makes Yun Jiao wonder if the villagers are overthinking it and that the water monster does not exist at all.

But there are ghosts. The things that came today are very likely to be ghosts.

A water ghost, the kind that's covered in water and has skin that's turned white from being soaked. Yun Jiao's shoulders trembled and he rubbed his face.

Although there were ghosts in the previous copy, they appeared too quickly and she couldn't see them. She just thought they were all human and didn't feel too much fear.

As long as she doesn't see the ghost with her own eyes, there is no ghost!

But this time, I'm afraid I will have to face the ghost head-on.

Yun Jiao prepared himself mentally with a tense face and asked the system.

"Can I exchange for talismans or other ghost-killing items?" The system cried out of guilt again, "No, I don't have this exchange function."

Yun Jiao sighed, "If something happens to me in the dungeon, will it affect me in reality?"

[No, and I can shield the host from pain. If the host suffers psychological trauma in the dungeon, the main system says it will compensate the host.]

Yun Jiao thought of the rose manor worth 10 billion yuan, and suppressed her fear with anticipation.

There are three male protagonists in the team. It is not impossible to find more information and survive until the end of the dungeon safely.

The next day, everyone woke up and went downstairs to eat white porridge with pickles.

The boy in the floral shirt had dull eyes and obvious dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he didn't sleep well last night.

He drank a mouthful of porridge and said in a bad tone.

"Old lady, you told us not to wander around last night because it would wake you up, but why did you wander around? You walked around up and down the stairs, making so much noise that I couldn't sleep."

Shen Jinyan, who was in the same room with him, did not expose him and was just scaring himself. She was too scared to fall asleep and looked at the old lady with everyone else.

The old lady's face darkened and she slammed the empty bowl heavily on the table.

"If you don't like the noise, just leave. I won't force you to stay!"

After saying this, the old lady left the table with a sullen face.

The man in the flowered shirt was yelled at and said dryly, "I'm not blaming an old lady like her. I just want her to stop scaring people at night."

No one else said anything. The footsteps last night were so sudden in the dark and really scary.

"It's not her." Chu Qing suddenly spoke.

The boy in the flowered shirt who had asked everyone about it as soon as he got together was depressed: "If it's not her, then who is it? We didn't go out."

"The footsteps were alternately light and heavy. She probably had a leg disease. It was definitely not an old lady." Shen Jinyan explained in more detail.

What he said made the man in the flowered shirt wonder, "Is there a thief?"

No one answered this question. The man in the flowered shirt seemed to be not very scared, which made him seem very timid as he had imagined scenes of home invasion, robbery and murder all night long.

He straightened his back and told Wang Manying that if she knew about the thief, he would come out and catch him to protect everyone's wallets, and he was determined to defend his dignity as a boyfriend.
