Mistaking a horror game for a romance novel, he unexpectedly became a legend.

Grandma Lü and Zhang Dazhong sat nearby, supervising the group as they worked.

Old Mrs. Lü did not treat these people as human beings, but only as slaves and tools. Seeing that Song Yi arrived so late, she assumed that Song Yi was a lazy bum.

When he saw that Da Gang not only didn't scold Song Yi, but also went into the river to catch fish for Song Yi, his face immediately fell.

She walked up to Da Gang and said in a lecturing tone, "Why are you spoiling him? You give him food so he can work. If he doesn't listen, you should beat him up."

As Old Mrs. Lü spoke, she looked at Song Yi with a sinister and malicious gaze. Song Yi stood by the river, arms crossed, looking at Da Gang, but his eyes grew colder and colder.

Beat him up? Or beat him up yourself?

Da Gang panicked when he heard this. Although he had never been to school or read books, he understood the look in Song Yi's eyes.

Damn it, even putting aside the fact that he's poisoned, he can't beat Song Yi in a fight.

What if Song Yi gets angry and we have to beat him up when we get back?

Da Gang spat on Old Mrs. Lü: "Get lost, you son of a bitch, what I do is none of your business."

Da Gang was already intimidatingly ugly, and Old Mrs. Lü always bullied the weak and feared the strong. When Da Gang was fierce, she was so scared that she dared not speak.

Da Gang's actions made other players envious of Song Yi.

After catching enough fish, we went down the mountain to go home and eat grilled fish.

On the way down the mountain, Song Yi saw some wild fruit trees, so he asked Da Gang to pick the fruit while he wandered around.

If it were any other villager, they would have followed him closely, afraid he would run away. But Da Gang couldn't wait to get away from Song Yi, so he happily went to pick wild fruit.

The fog in the Ailao Mountains is very heavy all year round. In the morning, you can't see people even a meter away. It will dissipate a little as the sun rises.

Song Yi strolled leisurely and walked to a slope. Suddenly, the fog in the forest thickened, and then a faint sound came from the air.

Song Yi stood still and listened carefully. The sound echoed in the woods, sounding like both crying and laughing.

The humidity in the woods was high, and the air was naturally cooler. Song Yi felt the air around him getting colder and colder, and the eerie voice became clearer and clearer.

Below the slope in front of Song Yi, all the disobedient people were left there.

A shadow silently appeared behind Song Yi. This shadow was neither like a ghost nor a human. Its features were obscured by a thin veil of mist, making it impossible to see its full appearance. The shadow exuded an eeriness.

He stared at Song Yi like he was his prey. Two meters behind Song Yi, using the fog as cover, he slowly extended his hands, which had turned into tree branches, from his sleeves and moved them toward Song Yi's neck.

Song Yi remained standing still, staring ahead, while the tree branches behind him drew ever closer to his neck.

[It's over, it's over! I escaped the vengeful ghost, I escaped the bad guys, but I'm going to die at this thing's hands.]

What is this thing? It doesn't look like a ghost, and its face keeps changing.

This looks like a spirit or monster, which is rarely seen in games.

The viewers in the live stream held their breath as they watched this scene. Many of them were loyal fans of Song Yi and had witnessed his various famous monster-fighting moments.

They were terrified that Song Yi would be killed by this unknown ghost.

When the branches formed from those arms were only one centimeter away from Song Yi's neck, a wicked smile seemed to appear on the shadow's face.

Because the next moment he could use those branches to stab into Song Yi's delicate neck.

Suddenly, the world spun around, and the shadow was flung into the air by a force, spinning rapidly several times before crashing heavily to the ground.

After Song Yi pulled the hand that had turned into a tree branch and threw the shadow to the ground, he deliberately went forward to take a look.

Song Yi was naturally very perceptive. He sensed the shadow as soon as it was on him, let alone when the arm was already behind his neck.

But whatever it is, beat them up first.

Looking at the things he had thrown on the ground, Song Yi asked the same question as the viewers in the live stream.

Huh? What is this thing?

"No face?"

The shadow immediately retorted, "You're the one who has no shame."

Song Yi was unhappy. So you're cursing? He grabbed the tree branch again and threw it left and right.

Since becoming a "shadow," the shadow has long lost its human senses, but today it still relived the feeling of motion sickness and nausea.

I felt like I was going to vomit my internal organs, and the fog on my face was shaken off.

As the fog dissipated, Song Yi was able to see clearly that the shadow was a man.

"You're always so sneaky and cowardly, trying to ambush me from behind. Is that all you've got? And you're wearing a veil on your face. Have you been watching too many assassin movies? Aren't you afraid the veil will absorb water and suffocate you?"

Song Yi complained, but his hands kept moving. He even got a little addicted to it. He hadn't had much time to exercise lately, so this was a good opportunity to stretch his muscles and feel good.

But the shadow on his hand couldn't hold on any longer.

"No, please stop hitting me, I give up."

Shadow never expected that the target he randomly chose would turn out like this.

All the people he had chosen before were terrified of him, so why did the exact same moves fail to work on this young man?

Song Yi started sweating and, realizing it wouldn't be convenient to take a bath in this place, stopped.

Shadow lay on the ground, the branch in his hand stripped bare by Song Yi.

After wiping away the sweat, Song Yi walked to the shadow's side.

Song Yi frowned: "Are you a special effects makeup artist? Why are you giving yourself such a unique look when you're playing a ghost?"

The shadow suddenly became excited: "How did you know?"

Song Yi: "..."

This shadow didn't look like a pure ghost, but it also didn't look like a pure spirit. This was the first time Song Yi had encountered this type of thing, and he was quite curious.

"Tell me honestly what you are. Will you tell me yourself, or will I tell you while I'm beating you?"

Upon hearing this, Shadow immediately stood up: "Don't hit me, don't hit me, I'll talk."

The shadow, terrified, immediately confessed, "I'm a human, no, I'm a ghost."

Song Yi looked the shadow up and down, his eyes full of disdain: "A mountain spirit?"

The shadow gracefully smoothed its hair with its hand, which had transformed into a tree branch: "You could say that..."

“Ten years ago, I came to this mountain to explore and met Zhang Dazhong from Shiliu Village. I thought he was a good person. He took me to the village, but they tied me up and forced me to become their son.”

"Of course I couldn't do it, so I tried every means to escape from Shiliu Village. I tried to escape six times, and I was caught six times. In the end, because I was too disobedient, they beat me to death."

Song Yi: "Then you're a ghost. What happened to your arm?"
