Chapter 187 Complementarity
Chapter 187 Complementarity
After playing one round, everyone gained experience. Next, Wen Zongji had Qinghe act as the referee and led the group through a couple more sentences. Once everyone was sure they had learned the moves, the Barbarian Kill game officially began.
Qinghe calmly announced: "The barbarians have won!"
After what seemed like an eternity, another game finally ended.
Wen Zongji let out a sigh of relief: "It should be lunchtime soon, let's stop playing here for today."
Pei Rujing, however, seemed unsatisfied: "I'm not hungry."
Wen Zongji said quietly, "My wife, killing me so many times, is it fun?"
These people are all outrageous!
No matter who it is, as long as they obtain the identity of a barbarian, the first thing they will do is kill Wen Zongji.
Those who have acquired the identity of a medicine woman will never prescribe an antidote to save Wen Zongji if they see that he is dead.
This resulted in them playing so many games, but very few of them had a Christmas Eve as their first night, which is simply outrageous.
The few times that it happened to be Christmas Eve were because Wen Zongji was a barbarian and could not commit suicide, which is why he survived the first night.
But it was no use. As soon as they saw that the first night was Christmas Eve, they realized that Wen Zongji was a barbarian, and they voted him out on the first day of the election.
This resulted in Wen Zongji playing so many games, but most of the time he died on the first night without even leaving a last word, and the longest he ever survived didn't even make it to the second night.
It's easy to imagine how miserable Wen Zongji was.
He was so tired of playing that he didn't want to play anymore, but Pei Rujing and the others were addicted.
A group of novices first took down the veteran Wen Zongji, then the novices started fighting amongst themselves, and the more they played, the smoother they became, and the higher their skill level became.
They're a group of people who are good at eating, drinking and having fun, so the simplified version of Barbarian Kill isn't too brain-intensive. It satisfies both entertainment and makes people feel like they're using their brains.
This makes the game incredibly addictive, making you want to play it more and more.
Of course, Wen Zongji, who had no gaming experience whatsoever, didn't think that way.
Pei Shirong, who was intellectually outmatched throughout, didn't think so either.
Upon hearing Wen Zongji say that he wanted to have lunch, Pei Shirong immediately stood up: "I'm hungry, quickly have someone prepare the meal."
God knows how much he suffered. Every time he listened to others speak, he felt like he was mentally challenged, thinking that everyone he spoke of made sense.
But the final result showed that he was tricked by the barbarians countless times and was always easily fooled by them.
There were six people in total. Two of them wanted to leave and quit, so the others had to end the game as well.
Wen Zongji asked Chang Dong to arrange the meal, while he stood up and walked to the window, looking at the scenery rushing past, and stretched: "This place looks unfamiliar, the cruise ship has probably sailed quite far already."
Pei Rujing stood beside him: "The scenery here is quite beautiful."
Wen Zongji glanced at her and snorted coldly, "I'm still angry."
As mentioned earlier, in the game of killing barbarians, the situation could evolve into killing Wen Zongji first.
The main reason is that in the first few rounds, Pei Rujing got the Barbarian identity card, and she spared no effort to kill Wen Zongji on the first night, which made the others habitually kill Wen Zongji on the first night as well.
It could be said that Wen Zongji had absolutely no gaming experience in this game, and it was all thanks to the county magistrate.
Pei Rujing tilted her head to look at him and said sweetly, "My husband is the most magnanimous person, how could he hold such a grudge against me?"
Wen Zongji took a step back: "Don't flatter me, I'm very petty."
"My husband~"
Pei Rujing grabbed his hand and shook it playfully.
This scene was witnessed by Pei Shirong and his companions who were walking over, and they all paused in their tracks.
While Zuo Mingxuan and the others were wondering whether to pretend they hadn't seen him and back away, Pei Shirong burst out laughing.
"Little sister, we're still watching."
Zuo Mingxuan and the others exchanged glances, then took a few steps back without hesitation, their eyes darting left and right, avoiding looking in Pei Rujing's direction.
Pei Rujing glared at Pei Shirong: "Then close your eyes!"
Pei Shirong glared at her: "Little sister, you..."
"Close your eyes!"
Pei Shirong's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.
The others also closed their eyes.
Wen Zongji sighed, "Wife, anyone who didn't know better would think we were up to something shady."
Pei Shirong realized what was happening and opened his eyes again: "That's right, in public, little sister, you just know how to scare me."
Pei Rujing laughed in exasperation, walked over, and punched Pei Shirong: "If you don't talk, no one will think you're mute, but why do you talk so much!"
Pei Shirong was thick-skinned and tough, so Pei Rujing's punches felt like tickles to him. But he was now on his toes, and his continued talking was clearly a provocation to Pei Rujing.
So, Pei Shirong was beaten so badly by Pei Rujing that he had to run away with his head in his hands.
"I'm sorry, little sister, I misspoke."
Pei Rujing remained silent, relentlessly pursuing Pei Shirong.
Zuo Mingxuan and the other two had already retreated to the side to watch the show.
Zuo Mingxuan clicked her tongue and said, "Miss Mei, your future husband is too straightforward and doesn't have much of a mind. You'll be quite busy from now on."
Mei Yilan watched the brother and sister playing around with a calm expression: "Coincidentally, I'm more cunning."
Zuo Mingxuan looked at her and smiled: "Then you two are quite a good match."
Fang Sichu interjected, "We're the same."
Zuo Mingxuan rolled her eyes at him: "What's it to you?"
Fang Sichu had no choice but to shut her mouth.
On the other side, Pei Rujing chased Pei Shirong for a long time until she was too tired to run anymore before she stopped.
Just then, lunch was served.
Pei Shirong acted as if nothing had happened: "I'm starving! Come on, let's have a meal together."
Pei Rujing rubbed her fist: "That's so unfair!"
Her hand was sore, but Pei Shirong looked perfectly fine.
Wen Zongji said helplessly, "If your hand hurts, just stop hitting me, okay?"
Pei Rujing pouted: "Who told him to be so tactless?"
Several people sat down together for lunch.
Zuo Mingxuan asked, "What should we do after lunch?"
Pei Rujing said, "Let's take a short rest, then go fishing."
"Fishing? That's not very interesting."
Another one who can't settle down.
Wen Zongji said, "Then make your own arrangements. If you want to go fishing, go fishing; if you want to do something else, you can do that too."
Fang Sichu agreed: "That's good."
Pei Shirong and Mei Yilan nodded in agreement.
And that's settled then.
After that, no one spoke, and everyone quietly ate their lunch.
