Gu Xizhou looked at the young girl and recognized her as Mei Xiao, raising an eyebrow slightly. When they entered this world, they were surrounded by ghosts. It was reasonable to say that even if they saw something awful, they should be used to it.

Si Yu raised his head to check the time. It was currently three minutes past four.

“What did you do after you came in?”

These people who entered the park before them didn’t know what happened either. Si Yu’s eyes fell on the young girl’s clothes, there was a spatter of blood on her chest. 

Mei Xiao was choked up by emotion. Ye Shu comforted her. Finally, with a frightened expression, Mei Xiao opened her mouth to speak, “I don’t know what to say!”

When the four people heard Mei Xiao’s words, they looked at eachother helplessly.

Gu Xizhou said faintly, “Then speak slowly.”

Mei Xiao was quiet for a moment. After a long time she slowly began to talk about what happened a few minutes ago.

“Zhu Rong and I teamed up. You just met him. He had a tiger head tattooed on his arm.”

Ma Qi did have an impression of him and nodded, indicating for her to continue.

“After we got a ticket, we went with the others.”

“After we went in, we discovered that the ghosts refused to acknowledge us. They were like walking corpses lined up at every amusement park activity…” 

“We didn’t have any clear clues, and the NPC’s didn’t give us any either. When we got to the carousel, we saw a little boy lining up with the rest of the ghosts… He was just a normal little boy, do you get what I’m saying? He wasn’t a ghost… he was human.”

When we saw that little boy… we thought that he was definitely the key NPC of this world. But when we called out to him to stop, he made a face at us and sat down with those ghosts.”

Zhu Rong chased after the little boy. I don’t know what happened… Anyhow, I saw Zhu Rong run towards the carousel, he wasn’t careful and dropped his ticket…”

Mei Xiao looked frightened, seeming to recall something terrifying as her face paled. “Those ghosts suddenly attacked him! There was so much blood. So much blood on the ground. Afterwards, someone shrieked and we scattered at once.” 

He dropped his ticket?

Gu Xizhou raised an eyebrow slightly, “If you lose your ticket, the ghost’s will attack.”

Under Ye Shu’s care, Mei Xiao’s mood stabilized.

Seeing that Gu Xizhou was looking at him, Si Yu shrugged and said, “That little boy should be an important NPC. I think that some of them should still be there. Let’s go take a look.”

Gu Xizhou didn’t answer. Si Yu turned to Mei Xiao and said, “Show us the way, ba. You still have your ticket, it’s unlikely they will attack you.”

Gu Xizhou looked at Si Yu, thinking that this person had a way of bewitching people. Not only that, but he also had a way of giving people a sense of security. Look at Mei Xiao, just a moment ago she was still weeping and crying, but once she heard Si Yu, she calmed down. Mei Xiao bit her lip and nodded. 

They all went to the carousel, but none of them saw the little boy. However, Si Yu had guessed correctly. In front of the carousel, there was a long line of ghosts in the front and people in the back.

“What’s going on now?” Gu Xizhou asked, seeing some acquaintances.

A-Ke, who he had just met at the amusement park gates, turned to him and said, “Look at your ticket.”

Stunned, Gu Xizhou took the ticket out of his pocket. A game item appeared on the front of the ticket: Carousel (2/33). 

“Don’t tell me we have to ride the carousel?” Gu Xizhou said, “the number two represents how many people have ridden the carousel and the thirty-three represents the number of people still alive?”

A-Ke nodded slightly and said, “That seems to be the case. If that little boy takes any ride, it will show up on our ticket…”

Gu Xizhou asked, “Who went on the carousel?”

“Lu Ge and his partner, they both went on the carousel. Other than them, I don’t know,” A-Ke whispered. 

Gu Xizhou raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced at the carousel. On top of the pink wooden horses sat a few ghosts… In any case, it looked dumb.

“Let’s line up first,” Si Yu said, “Only when everyone has sat on the carousel will we know if that is what the ticket means.”

Gu Xizhou raised an eyebrow and glanced at the long queue. He felt that this was going to be a little bit of a pain in the ass and asked, “How long is it going to take to get through this queue?”

“And look, the closing time is eight, the carousel holds eighteen people, and takes three minutes, and there are at least one hundred and eighty ghosts in front of it, ba?” 

“It will take us half an hour to get to the front.”

Si Yu bowed his head in thought for a moment before once again looking at Gu Xizhou. Apparently he also felt that waiting in line would be a headache. But, the most important thing was that they still didn’t understand the situation, and this world didn’t give a lot of hints.

Gu Xizhou glanced at the ghost operating the ride and said, “Wait here. I’ll be right back!”

“What are you up to?” Si Yu’s eyelids twitched for no reason. 

Gu Xizhou winked at him and said, “I’ll ask the staff if we can jump the cue!”

Si Yu looked at Gu Xizhou, clearly with a trace of doubt. Just now, two people had been attacked for buying tickets for cutting in line.

Gu Xizhou hurriedly reassured him, “I’m just going to ask. What if we can? Don’t you see we have VIP tickets?! There might be special treatment, right? You get in line, I’ll go ask and then come back!”

Si Yu listened to Gu Xizhou and looked down at the VIP Ticket. Unexpectedly, he felt that there may be a small chance and grabbed onto that hope. He nodded at Gu Xizhou, warning him repeatedly, “Come back quickly. If it’s not possible, don’t argue with those ghosts. You have a ticket, and they can’t attack you, but don’t attract resentment to yourself…” 

“Okay, okay, I got it!” Gu Xizhou said, waving his hands impatiently.

He walked up to the employee’s office and smiled at the ghost who only had half of his head. He placed his hand gently on the marble table and put on a pleasant expression, saying, “Ghost Xiongdi, I am in a hurry, can I jump the queue?”

That ghost turned its whole head around and the sound of his neck snapping rang out, “No, get lost.”

“What about this?” Gu Xizhou stared at the ghost unflinchingly and shook his VIP ticket package in its face, “Look here, I bought VIP tickets. These are no ordinary tickets, okay?” 

“No, get lost.” The ghost shook its head.

Gu Xizhou heard “no” twice and pointed at the ghost in silence for a moment. “Really, no?”

“No, get lost.”

It said this sentence very firmly, raising its eyebrows. After a moment, it looked down condescendingly at the guy in front of it. The corners of its mouth turned up and it smiled sinisterly, just like a ghost about to kill someone in a horror movie. “You all will die, no one will leave.” 

“Ah.” Gu Xizhou stared at it and then pushed the door next to him to go in. He touched his hand to his chin and looked at it with a face full of smiles. The ghost had told him to get lost three times. Regardless of what it said, he couldn’t stand for this.

“Think again. If not, you’ll have to face the consequences.”

The ghost narrowed its eyes, watching Gu Xizhou attentively. It wiped the bloodstains from its eyes, a little stunned. It seemed as though this human was threatening it. No, that was impossible. Ever since it became a ghost, no human could threaten it. They could only fear it, dread it!

“No, get lost at once.” 

Gu Xizhou was met once again with refusal. He took a silent step forward, shutting the staff office door. He rubbed his hands together, stretching the muscles that hadn’t been used in a long time. This ghost told him to get lost four times! A demonic cultivator couldn’t bear it!

“What are you doing?” Seeing the human smiling at it, its brows jumped for no reason, but it soon calmed down. The rules made it so that they couldn’t attack people, but if the human attacked it first, it could strike back.

If it could get this man’s ticket, it could die!

Gu Xizhou laughed, “Guess.” 

Gu Xizhou focused all his attention on the ghost and waited to make his move. He closed the distance between them in a single stride and, making a fist with his right hand, punched it in the face.

The ghost’s reaction time wasn’t slow, but it couldn’t completely avoid Gu Xizhou’s attack. In the mission worlds, Gu Xizhou was a cheat in an entirely different class of supernatural beings all together.

The ghost couldn’t dodge it, and Gu Xizhou’s fist smashed the bridge of its nose with a punch directly in the face. Its whole face suffered from the blow. Originally, it had died miserably, but right now it was even more miserable.

“Peng——” 

Again, its jaw was hit by a fist, sending the whole ghost flying. And, because its skull wasn’t intact, its brains fell out onto the ground. To its amazement, this was only the beginning.

The human hit it in the face over and over. Suddenly that human’s hand changed, emitting a strange dark qi. That qi hardly came close to it before it was in so much pain that it wanted to die, but it could only wail miserably.

Lying on the ground, it caught sight of its poor brain not far from it. It cried out from the bottom of its soul, “What kind of ghost are you! You can’t be human!”

Gu Xizhou, “……” 

It was not Gu Xizhou’s voice that answered it, but another new round of beating.

It: qwq

Gu Xizhou: “I am human.”

It nodded like a chicken pecking grain, “Okay, okay, okay! I believe you! I really do! Will you release your smoking hand, please! 

Gu Xizhou looked satisfied, “Now can I cut in line?”

It: “I have principles!”

Seeing the evil fiend glaring at it, it immediately began to cry. It really did have principles, he couldn’t cut in line, ah!

Gu Xizhou shook his head. Apparently it wasn’t miserable enough. It must be because he hadn’t beaten it senseless yet. 

Fist after fist, demonic qi invaded its body. It was as if its soul was being torn apart. The ghost employee of Death Amusement park who had been so arrogant before raised its hands in surrender, “You can join the cut in line, you can cut in line! Don’t hit me again, I’m going to die!”

Gu Xizhou: “I wish I had done this sooner!”

Gu Xizhou didn’t forget to remind it, “You’re already dead!”

It: “……”
