Chapter 646 Horrible Nursery Rhymes (VIII)

Feng Bujue followed Li Ruoyu's instructions, walked to the wall, and raised the [Compound Anti-Gravity Catapult] in his hand towards the black shadow block on the wall.

Then, he activated the "adsorption" function of the catapult.

A second later, a slight "buzzing" sound announced that the catapult had indeed attracted an object (there would be no reaction if the adsorption function was turned on in the air).

"Huh? It really is." Feng Bujue said, stepping back half a step and bending his arm to retract it.

Then, a wine bottle with a cork was "pulled" out of the shadow of the black wall...

This object seemed to have traveled through dimensions from a plane to a three-dimensional world. The black shadow on the wall also disappeared.

"Wow! Awesome!" Buu said with his eyes wide open.

Ubu also said: "Well... everyone on the Hell Front is really not an ordinary person..."

Their amazement was natural. Any player with a little skill can see that... the puzzles in these two rooms are all very difficult; in addition to observation, calculation, association and reasoning skills, these puzzles also require a high level of knowledge from the player. For example, the "Bottle, Glass and Violin" on the wall in front of you, if you don't have a certain amount of art-related knowledge and painting skills, it is impossible to reveal it. Even a monster-level puzzle solver like Feng Bujue can't see the clues without specific knowledge.

"You two are too kind." Ruoyu is not as arrogant as Jue. Facing the praise from Buu and Ubu, she just replied calmly, "Because the system will refer to the information in all players' minds when generating the script, and this puzzle happens to be based on a set of information that only I know, so I solved it."

Her expression is very clever, her tone is neither humble nor arrogant, and the content of her words is very objective and convincing; even if she is denying other people's views, the other party will not feel "offended".

Compared with this. Jue Ge, who is used to "logical rape" and leaves people speechless, obviously went to the other extreme...

"Ah... Anyway, it's a good thing to find clues." Feng Bujue continued, and picked up the bottle and showed the item description to his teammates:

[Name: Bottle]

[Type: Plot-related]

[Quality: Dilapidated]

[Function: Liquid]

[Can be taken out of the script: No]

[Note: There is nothing special about the glass wine bottle. The label on the bottle has long been worn off, and the cork at the mouth of the bottle can be removed at will. ]

"The type is a plot item, and it can't be taken out of the script, and the function is also clearly written..." Xiao Tan held his chin and pondered after reading the description, "That is to say... We have to use this thing to hold some kind of liquid later?"

"Well... We shouldn't be asked to hold urine." Feng Bujue immediately showed a thoughtful expression. He whispered, "After all, you can't relieve yourself in this game..."

"Is that the first thing you think of when you mention liquid..." Ruoyu glanced at Jue Ge and continued helplessly.

"Yes." Feng Bujue admitted straightforwardly, "It's strange... If I mention 'body fluids', I will first think of blood and..."

"Before I beat your body fluids out, I suggest you stop talking about this topic and take out the other two things in the wall." Ruoyu interrupted.

"Hehe... Got it." Feng Bujue smiled and handed the bottle to Oub who was standing not far away, and stepped forward again. Came to the wall.

A minute later, Brother Jue took out...

[Name: Glass]

[Type: Plot related]

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Function: Hold liquid]

[Can it be taken out of the script: No]

[Remarks: A very ordinary cylindrical glass, the inside of the cup is still clean. ]

And...

[Name: Violin]

[Type: Plot related]

[Quality: Dilapidated]

[Function: Play music]

[Can it be taken out of the script: No]

[Remarks: Although it looks very old, it can still be played normally. Unfortunately, the bow is gone. 】

"It seems that this puzzle is not over yet..." After the teammates have read the item descriptions, Brother Jue said again, "Just taking these three items out of the wall does not change our current situation."

Feng Bujue said as he turned his head and looked through the door behind him at the next room and said, "Let's call the room with the table and the oil lamp room a, and the room we are in now room b..." He paused for a second. It seems that he is waiting for his teammates to accept this setting, "It is currently known that there are two keys in room a, one of which has been consumed to open the door connecting room a and room b; and the remaining [faded copper key] cannot open the other door in room a."

"There is no entrance to other areas in room b, and no other keys have been found..." Buu continued what Brother Jue said, "The only clues have given us three props - a bottle, a glass and a violin. But... none of these three things seem to be able to open the door."

"That's right." As he spoke, Feng Bujue had put away the catapult (at this time, the door connecting the two rooms was open, the light from the next door could shine in, and the other players also had lighting equipment in their hands, so he didn't need a searchlight), holding a cup and a violin, and walked towards room a, "According to normal thinking... we should go back to room a now, and use these three props found in room b to find a way to open the other door..."

Bang——

Brother Jue's words were interrupted by the sound of a door closing.

He looked at the door panel that closed by itself (this was the second time) with an unhappy face, shook his head and said, "Are you kidding me... Still coming?"

This time, six players were trapped in room b together. But compared to when Brother Jue was trapped alone, the situation was much better... This time, there was no distortion in the surrounding space, and the lighting equipment in the hands of the players were all working normally.

"Ah——" The first one to shout was Xiao Tan.

Well... he was also the last one, and no one else shouted.

"Why are you shouting..." Even Xiao Ling beside him felt embarrassed. She immediately shone a flashlight on Xiao Tan's face and said, "Isn't it just being locked in a room by a ghost? You are already level 40, what are you afraid of?"

"Yes! It is scary to be locked in a room by a ghost!" Xiao Tan replied loudly and honestly, "Besides... fear has nothing to do with level!"

"That's right, people's courage. There is no necessary connection with the level in the game." Feng Bujue turned around seriously and raised his hand to point at Buu and Oub beside him, "You see, they are also very scared, but the way they express it is not shouting."

He was right. At this time, Buu and Oub, one opened his mouth and was stunned, and the other had a livid face and a look of horror.

"This is what is called being scared to death..." Ruoyu commented calmly.

"Hey~ Actually, you don't have to be too nervous." Feng Bujue looked at the two and said. "This should be just a normal event. According to my guess, the triggering conditions are probably 'all six people are in room B; and have obtained the bottle, glass and violin'. When we meet these two conditions, as long as we try to return to room A, we will encounter..."

"Shhh——" Suddenly, Ruoyu shushed Jue Ge, interrupted him, and patted his shoulder.

Jue Ge also understood and immediately stopped talking. Listening attentively.

Not long after, all six players heard it... From the next room, a low and hoarse singing came...

[The king and his lackeys,

Take the queen from the bed.

Bound her to her bones.

The ocean belongs to us,

Relying on its power...

Where the heart desires, we can go.

Yo~ho~ Pull together~

Raise the flag high.

Heave~ho~

Thieves and beggars,

We will never die...]

After singing this lyrics three times (in English, but the players can understand it), the voice stopped abruptly.

Then, there was a "click".

The tightly closed door opened again...

[Main quest has been triggered] The system prompt sounded.

Players opened the game menu and saw a new main quest in the task bar: [Get the golden key from the ghost of the pirate. ]

"Damn it! Where's my wine!" At the same second, a roar came from behind the door.

As the door gradually opened, the players saw... There was a wooden stool next to the table in room A, and a translucent ghost was sitting on the stool.

The ghost was dressed in brocade clothes, wearing gold and silver, and a captain's hat on his head. However, his appearance was extremely sloppy... He had long, messy hair that reached his shoulders, a big beard that looked like a broom, sunken eyes, rough skin, and nose hair that had grown out of his nose, blending into the beard on his lips...

"Ah~ Finally here." The ghost pirate glanced at the door and said loudly, "Quick, bring the wine over."

"Wine?" Feng Bujue's expression changed slightly, and he looked down. He only had an empty cup and a violin without a bow in his hand. Where was the wine?

"Uh... Are you referring to this?" At this time, Oub, who was looking out the door, spoke. He raised the [bottle] that Brother Jue had just handed him and shook it at the ghost.

For some reason, the [bottle] that was originally empty was now full, filled with light yellow liquid.

"Uh... Teacher Jue, should I go over?" Oub looked at Brother Jue and asked tremblingly.

"Go ahead, there's nothing to be afraid of." Feng Bujue said, and handed the glass in his hand to Orb, and stepped aside to make way.

To be honest, the scene in front of me... is really nothing to be afraid of. The light in room A is as bright as before; and the ghost pirate's appearance is not very scary, just a gray, translucent ghost, looking very much like the ghost image in old movies.

"Oh... okay." Orb almost didn't hesitate, and after responding, he took the bottle and glass... and went to the table.

Maybe it was Brother Jue's tone and demeanor that gave him confidence, but Oub's fright level suddenly dropped. He said to himself in his heart: "Teacher Jue is right, what's there to be afraid of? Even this is nothing." If you are afraid, I might as well play "Ghost Horse Elf OL" (this game is fictional and does not exist)."

While emboldening himself in his mind, he came to the ghost pirate: "Well...this is your wine..." After saying that, Orb put the bottle and cup on the table and quickly took a step back. Looking at each other warily.

The ghost pirate glanced at him, curled his lips, and said nothing more. Then, the sloppy guy pulled out the cork from the bottle and started pouring himself a glass of wine.

Seeing that there was no danger, the other five players also passed through the door one after another and walked back to room a.

After coming in, the first thing Brother Jue did was to lean into Oub's ear and ask in a low voice: "By the way...the liquid that suddenly emerged from the bottle...is it yours..."

"How is that possible..." Uub's mouth twitched as he replied, "I don't know when the liquid in the bottle appeared. Anyway, before the door was closed, the bottle was still empty... I found that there was liquid in the bottle. , it happened after the mission prompt sounded.”

"Oh~" Feng Bujue responded, thinking in his mind, "This is Brother Zun helping us..."

His guess was correct, the wine in the bottle was indeed conjured by Zhuan Jie Zun. The original plot here should have players fill a wine bottle with blood... for the ghost pirate to drink. Fortunately, Brother Youzun secretly helped, which saved them a lot of trouble.

Of course. Even without Brother Zun’s help, the problem wouldn’t be big. With Orb's "humanoid supply station" here, it's not a matter of minutes to get some blood... There is a consumable called [Universal Plasma] in his luggage; if the ghost pirate wants to drink "fresh", Just let that fat guy Buu get a couple of hits. Anyway, after the discharge is over, he can be replenished through infusion.

"Hiccup~" About two minutes later, the ghost pirate had finished half a bottle of wine. He burped, raised his eyes and glanced around the players, and finally stopped at Brother Jue. "Just drinking is too boring...you! Give me some music."

"Huh?" After hearing this, Feng Bujue was stunned for half a second, and then he realized...this situation was obviously caused by him holding the violin.

then. Brother Jue struggled mentally for a while and turned to look at his teammates.

The eyes of his teammates included doubts, expectations, and gloating... It was a pity that no one volunteered to stand up for him.

"Oh... just come." After thinking for a moment, Feng Bujue sighed, put on a "Brother, I'm willing to give it all" look, and walked up to the pirate, "What do you want to hear?"

"Nonsense, let's play something we pirates often listen to." The ghost pirate replied in a rude tone, "Don't you still want to play an opera?"

"Understood." Feng Bujue set up the violin with a calm expression, posed in a precise manner, put his chin rest on his neck, pressed the strings with his left hand, and raised his right hand, "It can't be played without a bow. Can I use the one that plays? ?”

"Okay, whatever you want." The ghost pirate poured himself another glass of wine and replied impatiently.

Feng Bujue shrugged, tilted his head, plucked the string with his right hand, and really started playing.

Boom, boom, clang... a burst of string sound, with rhythm and sound, ups and downs, it really looks like that.

"As expected of Mr. Jue... the songs he plays are so profound..." Buu's eyes lit up with admiration again.

"As expected of Teacher Jue... he only knows a little more than the average person..." Oub also praised.

"Tch...it's just a very popular tune..." Xiao Ling continued.

Xiao Tan muttered with confusion: "It's so strange... the violin sounds like pipa."

"This is the first time I know that he still has this hand..." Ruoyu also felt a little surprised.

Just when everyone was talking about Feng Bujue's musical achievements, something terrible happened...

After Brother Jue plucked the strings for a while, he started singing: "I touched it~ I touched it~ On the top of my eldest sister's head~ Her black hair was dyed like ink, as if the dark clouds were covering the sky! Ouch~ It was like the dark clouds were covering the sky~ "

"Pfft--" The ghost pirate spat out a mouthful of wine at that moment.

Brother Jue's five teammates all stayed in place due to shock, unable to make any reaction. If there was one word to describe this state, it would be - petrified.

"What the hell is this!" the ghost pirate roared in shock and anger.

Feng Bujue replied calmly: "Eighteen touches."

"I asked you to play some music that 'pirates often listen to', and you will play this for me?" the ghost pirate continued.

"Then what do you want to hear?" Brother Jue asked.

"Nautical songs! Don't you know this? How did you get on my ship!" shouted the ghost pirate. It seemed that he thought he was still alive and on his ship. "The songs of our pirates, It is supposed to symbolize freedom, unrestrainedness, determination, and fearlessness..."

"Okay, okay... I understand." Feng Bujue leisurely tuned the strings, picked up a new tune, and sang at the top of his voice, "The river flows eastward ~ the stars in the sky join the Beidou! Hey... hey ...Join Beidou...A bowl of wine at the crossroads of life and death...Say let's go, let's go~You have it, I have it all! Hey...hey...I have it all...I won't look back in water or fire. …”

"Wow~Damn——Fuck?" The ghost pirate was shocked. He stared at Brother Jue with wide eyes and asked seriously, "A few years ago...I stabbed you to death with a knife, do you believe it?"

"Then what do you want?" Feng Bujue replied with a dead pig fearless look, "You say...what do you want to hear, just pick it! Although I don't know much, I can still come up with popular ones, such as "Where is the Way", "A Laugh in the Sea", "Sailor"..."

Bang——

At this time, the door connecting room A and room B closed again.

But this time...it didn't close by itself, but Ruoyu threw it up. Before she slammed the door, she left a sentence in a cold tone: "When he is done with his crazy, you guys call me..." (To be continued..)
