  Ruan Haiyan was still screaming with his head in his hands, and when he saw the sudden surge of blood, his cries became even more terrified. “Ah!——”

 

As soon as he let out the first scream, the players by the river noticed.

 

They immediately stood up and looked towards the river.

 

The mist over the river cleared, and sunlight poured onto the glistening water, revealing only one panicked player screaming with his head in his hands.

 

In front of him, an expanding area of blood was spreading.

 

All the players were stunned.

 

“What happened?”

 

“Where are the other two?”

 

“Is there a monster in the riverbed?”

 

Ruan Haiyan in the river screamed in panic while scrambling towards the riverbank.

 

This scene seemed to confirm that there were monsters in the riverbed.

 

The increasing area of blood seemed to indicate how bloody and terrifying the monster in the riverbed was.

 

Pang Yang immediately took off his shoes. “We need to hurry and save him!”

 

Just as he was about to rush forward, Fang Qi grabbed his arm. “Wait, look behind him.”

 

Players who had gone fishing knew that the river wasn’t deep.

 

Behind Ruan Haiyan, who was desperately running forward, a person gradually emerged.

 

First, a head surfaced, followed by shoulders, chest, and both legs.

 

Ruan Haiyan only heard the rushing water behind him and didn’t know what was happening. Seeing the terrified look of the players on the shore, he was almost scared out of his wits.

 

He gasped for breath and ran forward desperately, “Save me! Save me!!!”

 

Some players still hadn’t reacted and said to the person behind Ruan Haiyan, “Where’s Lu Si? What are you doing!”

 

As soon as they spoke, Lu Si floated up.

 

Being pulled step by step towards the riverbank by that ‘person’.

 

The player who asked realized something, and a drop of cold sweat instantly slid down his forehead.

 

‘He’ pulled Lu Si’s body slowly onto the shore, passing by the frozen players. Occasionally, ‘he’ would turn his head to glance at the players’ tense faces.

 

In the glaring sun, the players’ hearts were chilled, and a coldness surged from their feet to every part of their bodies.

 

In broad daylight, even the dead could emerge.

 

They evolved beyond imagination, forcing the players into a corner, always killing them in unexpected places.

 

They were all outside the bus, just moments ago indulging in food and drink.

 

Would the corpses also suspect that they were different?

 

Lu Si’s body was dragged all the way by that ‘person’, blood and river water flowing along the path.

 

In addition to this corpse, two more descended from the bus, hanging Lu Si’s body upside down on a tree, right next to Gu Xinghua.

 

Gu Xinghua was as still as a dead chicken, liquid dripping down his face, unsure of its origin.

 

After hanging Lu Si, the corpses sat in the shade of the tree, staring at Lu Si’s body, their gaze also reaching Gu Xinghua.

 

Gu Xinghua probably wished he was really a corpse.

 

Other players thought so.

 

The corpses were far away from them, but the players dared not speak freely anymore.

 

Their daytime communication was also interrupted.

 

Originally, this was a good opportunity to recognize all the players.

 

Their living space was being squeezed smaller and smaller, to the point where even breathing felt suppressed.

 

Many had no mood to eat grilled fish anymore.

 

Ning Su also followed suit and stopped eating.

 

He picked up the pillowcase sunbathing on the nearby stone, stuffing the leaves he had rubbed off the vines inside.

 

Creating a curve suitable for sleeping, he noticed that the surrounding people hadn’t moved yet. He then used vines and a skull to weave a small hanging lamp.

 

After the corpse carried Lu Si’s body onto the bus 07, the players began to board one by one.

 

Ning Su also carried the well-cut vines onto the bus.

 

Gui Sheng held a pillow. Manman carried two small hanging lamps.

 

Ning Su placed the vines on the bunk. The thicker vines with many leaves spread over the bed, while the finer ones with smaller leaves hung on the bed rail of the upper bunk, creating a makeshift bed curtain. Finally, he hung a small lamp at the foot of the bed.

 

After hanging the small lamp, he looked up and saw Miss Skeleton waking up. Ning Su carried another small hanging lamp and walked to the driver’s seat.

 

He leaned over and greeted Miss Skeleton, “Miss Skeleton, did you change shifts?”

 

Miss Skeleton’s crimson snake-like lips curled slowly at the corners, and the spider-leg eyelashes blinked.

 

Manman leaned on the fence, looking at her curiously, “Miss Skeleton, I have many skeletons, but you are the most unique one I’ve ever seen.”

 

Gui Sheng: “Hmm! Cute!”

 

Miss Skeleton smiled again, slowly.

 

Ning Su hung the small lamp woven from vines and a little skull on the roof of the bus, alongside those eerie little dolls. He said, “Thank you for helping me last time. I hope this small lamp can light up a part of your night journey.”

 

The warm scene between them puzzled the players.

 

“What is he doing?”

 

“Is he trying to please that weird driver?”

 

“First pleasing the corpse, then pleasing the driver. What kind of strategy is this?”

 

“No, the question is, can they still be pleased?”

 

Pang Yang stood on the bed, leaned on the side of Fang Qi’s bed on the upper bunk, and asked Fang Qi in a low voice, “How did you guys meet the driver? What’s her relationship with Ning Su? They seem to be chatting happily.”

 

“She is the bus driver who brought us into the game. As for her relationship with Ning Su...”

 

Fang Qi thought for a moment. He still remembered that scene where everyone on the bus was focused. “Ning Su gently touched the face of Miss Driver, and she looked up at Ning Su with a happy expression.”

 

Pang Yang: “???”

 

No, he just said some embarrassing lines to the person on the upper bunk last night. But he and Miss Driver had already acted in an idol drama a while ago?

 

Thinking about the embarrassing lines from last night, with the other main character right beside him, Pang Yang turned his head to take a glance and was startled.

 

That person gazed with open eyes, in the dim light. The eyes were dark and mysterious, like peering into an abyssal world with no end.

 

Pang Yang slowly turned his head back, gradually shrinking away.

 

The outside vines rustled and disappeared into the ground. Ling Xiao, who had slept for a day and night, came down from the bed and first saw Ning Su’s small bed.

 

Two layers of vines were laid on the bed, and the lush vine leaves covered the bed densely.

 

Tender and curved small vines surrounded the bed like curtains.

 

At the foot of the bed hung a small night light woven from vines and a skull, and around the skull’s head and ears were patches of green leaf-like hair.

 

The whole bed was much more delicate, full of lush greenery.

 

Ling Xiao: “......”

 

After Gu Xinghua crawled into the bus in a sorry state, Ning Su also returned from speaking to the driver.

 

He noticed Ling Xiao, who just woke up, took a look at his own bed. He touched his nose and retrieved a leftover roasted sweet potato from under the bed. He then handed it to Ling Xiao, saying, “I know you really enjoy eating roasted sweet potatoes, so I saved this specifically for you.”

 

Ling Xiao stared at the roasted sweet potato in his hand for a while.

 

When he looked up again, the young man had already crawled into the bunk, and the bed curtain blocked most of the view.

 

Ling Xiao gradually regained focus, squinting his eyes.

 

Many people on the bus were staring at Ning Su’s bunk just like him, unable to express their feelings.

 

Pang Yang suddenly thought of university dorm life. At that time, many girls in the class would buy bed curtains, giving themselves a closed and independent space.

 

At first, the boys in their dormitory sneered at it, thinking it was something only little girls did. Later, they found it quite enjoyable.

 

He looked at Ning Su’s bunk and thought, “You’re experiencing dorm life here. No wonder so many people want to bully you. You really know how to attract resentment.”

 

The bus swayed as it moved, and the skull-shaped night light at the bed’s end also swayed along, illuminating this small space behind them.

 

Pang Yang strangely felt a bit warm in this bus surrounded by death, corpses, and ghosts.
