Cataclysm: Precognition system vs. luck system

Buried in Xueshan Village.

Jian Hongqi stood in front of the gathered players with a smug look on his face, "I've already guessed who killed Lu Wenyao."

"Don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me now."

Zhao Baimeng hates this kind of arrogant and suspenseful man the most. He is really disgusted by it.

Jian Hongqi glanced at her, snorted, then took out a small piece of cloth and said loudly, "This is the cloth from Lu Wenyao's shirt. I just found it at the door of the Shrew Gui's house. So it proves that Lu Wenyao came to Shrew Gui's place last night. In addition, Lu Wenyao's face was covered with lipstick marks from being kissed yesterday, so we can guess that the ghost he hooked up with was Shrew Gui."

Zhao Baimeng craned his neck to take a look at the cloth in his hand. "Are you saying that the shrew murdered him?"

Jian Hongqi shook his head and said confidently, "No, it was the husband of the shrew, Lao Shigui, who killed her. The shrew had no motive to kill, and the cuckolded Lao Shigui obviously had a greater motive."

Zhao Baimeng was impatient and continued to press, "So, you already know the answer. Why did you ask us to come here? You didn't just want us to come here and listen to you play detective reasoning games?"

The veins on Jian Hongqi's forehead throbbed. "Can you please shut up? How can a woman talk so much?"

Zhao Baimeng put his hands on his hips and was also angry. "How dare you look down on women? Don't think you are so powerful just because you show off your reasoning skills. Compared with Si Tiantian, you are not even as good as one finger of hers. Maybe she has already found the spy for the main quest."

Jian Hongqi looked arrogant. "Impossible. They would have announced the completion of the main mission. What's your relationship with Si Tiantian? You keep praising her. She just hangs around with old men and women all day and never looks for any clues. How could she have completed the main mission so quickly?"

"Forget it, you have long hair and short knowledge. I don't want to bother with you. I called you here to catch the honest ghost. It killed Lu Wenyao, so it is most likely a spy ghost. I saw it leave the village last night. Maybe it went out to pass on the news to Lieyan Village. We must find it and capture it as soon as possible to complete the main mission."

After saying this, Jian Hongqi seemed to have come just to show off, and then left.

Zhao Baimeng didn't believe it completely. At least she didn't believe what Jian Hongqi said about Si Tiantian being slacking off and not finding any clues at all. However, the fact that Si Tiantian was a spy sounded reasonable and well-founded, so she guessed it might be true.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously looked for Lao Shigui.

Han Wenying looked at Zhu Yutang and asked, "What do you think? Can you trust Jian Hongqi's words?"

Qian Jiafu, standing next to him, spitted, "That brat is so cunning. Can he tell us the answer to the main quest? I don't believe it. This brat must be plotting something bad."

Zhu Yutang did not speak, but looked thoughtful. He had never seen an honest ghost, but he had seen a shrew ghost. With the keenness he had trained for so many years, he felt that there was something wrong with this shrew ghost. He planned to start his investigation from the shrew ghost.

On the other side, the bodyguards beside Jian Qing looked at him respectfully, "Mr. Jian, are we going to catch Lao Shigui?"

Jian Qing pondered for a moment and then shook his head. "No, Jian Hongqi is a cunning guy. There's no way he'd give up such a big piece of meat for us to share. Besides, he's always trying to curry favor with the boss's family. He's always been against me. There's no way he'd let me take advantage of him like this. Let's first check on the shrew he's ruled out. I suspect he's trying to divert attention."

"Yes, sir."

On the other end, Jian Hongqi, who was being talked about, sneezed and looked around with a grim expression for information about Lao Shigui.

This time he really didn't lie. He really thought that Lao Shi Gui was a spy and he had known it for a long time, but he searched the entire Zangxue Village and couldn't find any trace of Lao Shi Gui, so he suspected that Lao Shi Gui had left the village to contact the ghosts of the Flame Army. When the time comes, it will bring the Flame Army to attack them directly. Wouldn't they, the players, be buried with the villagers of Zangxue Village?

That's why he just told the players the news and asked them to look for it together.

Compared to dying in the dungeon, he would rather share some of the credit with other players.

But what he didn't expect was that he was going further and further with the wrong answer, but someone, because of their prejudice against him, found the correct answer.

When the truth is revealed, Jian Hongqi will probably be furious.

"Hey, why is Si Tiantian gone?"

At this time, Jian Hongqi, who was passing by the village, looked at the group of old men and women who were gathered together talking, but Si Tiantian was missing among them. He frowned and suddenly felt something was wrong. Could it be that Si Tiantian also discovered that the honest ghost was a spy, so she went to find it?

A layer of gloom covered his eyes. No, if Si Tiantian found Lao Shigui and completed the main task, she could leave the dungeon. His murder plan has not been implemented yet, and Si Tiantian cannot run away.

While Jian Hongqi was searching the whole village for a man and a ghost, Si Tiantian was happily following the big bear ghost to dig out the rabbit's nest.

"Hurry, hurry, I found another snow cave."

Si Tiantian shouted loudly, and Big Bear Gui immediately grinned and ran over, dragging a string of tied snow rabbits, "I'll catch them, I'll catch them."

One man and one ghost happily stuck their buttocks out and reached into the hole on the small snow slope.

Unexpectedly, the hole became bigger and bigger, and finally two people could fit in it.

A man and a ghost squatted at the entrance of the cave and looked at each other.

Si Tiantian looked at the big bear ghost beside her, and suggested with a twinkle in her eyes, "This cave is so big, there must be a lot of snow rabbits. Why don't you fire an ice cone in there, use the most powerful one, and don't let those snow rabbits escape."

Big Bear Gui nodded seriously, without any doubt, and immediately sent icicles into the snow cave. The icicles were thin and dense, and the small icicles, slightly larger than a needle, flew into the snow cave.

Si Tiantian looked at it with admiration. Although the big bear ghost's brain was not very good, its strength was indeed beyond reproach. This attack was comparable to that of a C-level ghost.

"Oooooooo-"

Suddenly, a scream like a pig being slaughtered was heard from the cave. Si Tiantian's eyes lit up. Sure enough -

Then she started shouting at the top of her voice, "Village Chief, Village Chief, we found traces of the Flame Army, they are hiding in the rabbit hive--"

The big bear ghost squatting at the entrance of the cave with a frown on his face was puzzled at this moment. Why did he hear Si Tiantian's voice when the snow rabbit's call was so rough? There was a bit of confusion on his silly face.

The Flame Army is in the Rabbit Hole? Does that mean the name inside is the Flame Army?

The big bear ghost, who was a beat slow to react, suddenly became serious, with a ferocious expression, and rushed into the cave with great momentum.

Si Tiantian quickly reached out to stop it, but she couldn't stop it at all.

"How could this ghost be so reckless, charging in alone? He's not going to be roasted in no time, is he?"

She was muttering to herself, wondering whether she should offer some help since they were all digging the rabbit hole together, when the village chief arrived with a group of strong villagers.

Si Tiantian's eyes suddenly lit up and she waved at them, "Village chief, village chief, here, here, Big Bear Gui went in without listening to your advice, you guys go in and save him."

As she spoke, she deftly twisted the snow rabbit's neck and stuffed it into her invisible pocket.

The village chief couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw that she still didn't forget to catch rabbits at this time. He turned his face away as if he didn't see it, and told the villagers to go around her and go into the snow cave.
