Chapter 321 There is a big guy who has a crush on you
Deep in the palace, a young maid was murdered by a monster and was in danger.
Jiang Yuan knew the nature of the monster well. Once it locked onto its prey, it would cling to the victim until it succeeded in parasitizing him. So Jiang Yuan planned to take the opportunity to slip away.
"Shh, follow me."
Jiang Yuan said: "This is Dan Tai Sui, a parasitic monster that uses fear as a medium. Its appearance is inherently scary. Don't look directly at it."
After saying that, he tiptoed and led his three teammates to move quietly in the direction where the palace maids appeared.
But when he reached the end of the path and was about to run away, he noticed something wrong out of the corner of his eye. Turning back, he saw Huo Hu still hiding behind the incense burner, having already pulled out San Chun Hui, obviously wanting to save someone.
Jiang Yuan held his forehead helplessly.
This is trouble.

"Bloom... Bloom..."
The monster, covered with red flowers from internal organs, screamed in the girl's ear, as if to curse her:
"Bloom, bloom with us...!"
"no, do not want!"
The young maid covered her eyes and refused in fear: "I don't want to become a monster, get out! Get out of here now!!"
She said this, but her head was dizzy and the fuzz on her eyes grew thicker and thicker. As fear grew, they took root in her eyeballs and grew into her skull.
it hurts!
it hurts!
My head! It's going to explode! It's going to bloom!!!
Her eyes were red and she was shedding tears of blood. Her vision was so blurred that double images appeared.
There seemed to be countless strange overlaps in the darkness, surrounding her, swallowing her up, leaving her with nowhere to escape!
it hurts! !
I don't want to become a monster!
If you can't see it, it won't mutate? !
In extreme fear, the girl trembled as she put her thumbs in front of her eyeballs, intending to poke out her eyes!
But just when she was about to exert force with both hands!
whoosh---!
A sharp sound broke through the air, and in the blurred vision, a blue light shadow pierced through the darkness!
The red blood of the internal organs fell to the ground, splashing a pool of blood.
The flower monster screamed: "Who!!!"
It’s Huo Hu.
He followed Jiang Yuan's instructions and closed his eyes to identify the location by listening to the sounds in order to prevent himself from being affected by the parasite.
Because he was worried about accidentally hurting the girl, the first attack failed.
The monster was in great pain and pounced on the culprit angrily!
Huo Hu tilted his ears and caught the chaotic footsteps and the rubbing of branches. He determined the direction, drew his sword, and chopped. Without moving a step, he broke the monster into pieces!
Boom---!
The organs and flesh flowers fell to the ground one after another, the petals scattered, and formed a thick carpet.
By the time everyone saw it, the parasitic flower had withered into a shriveled skin bag, with blood all over the ground. Only the legs were still in human shape. The terrifying effect had disappeared, and it was deader than dead.
Zhong Liang complained: "This NPC has died countless times in this game, why are you saving her?"
Huo Hu thought about it apologetically and said, "Maybe it's because she looks younger than Zi'an, so I can't bear it?"
But as a veteran executive, it is indeed unbelievable that he would take risks to save NPCs.
He couldn't even understand himself.
Huo Hu looked at Jiang Yuan, seeking an answer.
Jiang Yuan saw through his confusion and gave an answer:
"This is not surprising. You have a half-blood adopted son, a teammate who is the Queen Mother of the West, a super powerful and weird captain, and a good friend like me who is a god. You have also been tied into the game and lived there for several months. It's hard not to change."
Huo Hu suddenly understood and said with a smile: "When did we become friends?"
Jiang Yuan: "Now."
But the young palace maid's eyes had been infected, and the tender buds of Dan Tai Sui had wrapped around her entire eyeball, causing pain in her eye sockets.
"It hurts so much, I don't want to bloom, I don't want to bloom..."
She muttered and wanted to continue crushing the eyeballs, but Huo Hu grabbed her hand in time.
"It's okay now, don't hurt yourself."
He stopped her, “If you crush your eyeballs, the severe pain and darkness will create even more fear, and you will be completely parasitized and turned into a monster.”
This is what he speculated.
The blind palace maid must have thought of this method, but she was eventually parasitized and turned into a monster, which shows that digging out the eyes is useless.
But the young palace maid became even more frightened.
"Don't come near me! Don't touch me!! Monsters! You are all monsters!!"
She was in a state of stress, trapped in the abyss of death and unable to extricate herself.
"Don't be scared, it's okay."
Huo Hu lowered his voice and soothed him: "We are all here to save you. We are not bad people. You are very brave and you will not turn into a monster."
The gentle words slowly calmed the girl's emotions.
"But I'm so scared. Purple Gold City is so scary. I can't survive alone... Impossible..."
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She was gradually being swallowed up by a desperate future and was on the verge of drowning at any moment.
Huo Hu patiently comforted him: "You are not alone, think about your family, your parents."
"Dad...Mom...?"
The maid raised her head, murmured softly twice, and suddenly hugged her head, shouting in fear:
“…Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
She completely collapsed, and the buds in her eyes more than doubled in size in an instant, like two toothpick holders!
Huo Hu:......
Well, not all parents in this world are qualified to be parents.
Saving a life is much harder than killing one.
Just when the branches in the palace maid's eyes had all grown as thick as her little finger and the roots were about to penetrate her brain, and she was completely beyond help, Jiang Yuan suddenly opened her mouth.
"Girl, what's your name?"
Young palace maid: "My name is Lan Cui"
"what?!"
Hearing this name, Jiang Yuan was surprised:
"You are Lan Cui?!"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then asked timidly, "Do you know me?"
"Of course!"
Jiang Yuan leaned close to her ear and said mysteriously, "Because I heard that there is a very powerful person who has always secretly liked you!"
"what?!"
Lan Cui was shocked at first, then habitually said with inferiority complex: "...How could it be, how could someone like me?"
"Why not?"
Jiang Yuan said: "That person said that Lan Cui is gentle and kind, shy and cute, and is the best girl in the world. If there is a chance in the future, I must propose to the emperor and welcome you into the family."
He kept praising Lan Cui until her face turned red.
"impossible......"
A blush appeared on the girl's face. The happiness and joy of being loved occupied her brain, dispelling her fear. The parasitism stopped, the branches on her eyes withered, and everything returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
"..."
The three onlookers were stunned, with expressions full of: Is this possible???
Jiang Yuan waved his hand: No big deal.
He is good at fooling girls.
After that, Lan Cui's mind was full of thoughts about the suspect who had a crush on her, and she had no time to be afraid.
Although she was no longer afraid, the eye that was infected by the parasite was still seriously injured.
Huo Hu cut off the parasitic branches and used healing spray to help her eyes recover.
Zhongliang became unhappy again when he saw that he was using low-level props.
"Save him if you can. Why waste items on an NPC? The last thing this palace needs is blind people."
Huo Hu said in a good-tempered manner: "It's okay, I brought a lot of props this time, I can't use them all."
Jiang Yuan stood beside the withered remains of the monster and looked at it for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Sister Zhong, have you ever met Dan Taisui in this game before?"
Zhong Liang shook his head: "No, it's the first time I've seen it too, it's fucking disgusting."
Jiang Yuan fell into deep thought: "Sure enough..."
Yu Lao asked: "I remember Dan Taisui, was he the creature in the An-level Gate that you recovered?"
Jiang Yuan was pleasantly surprised: "Sister Yu is amazing. She even remembers such a small thing."
Yu Lao snorted: "Call me grandpa."
Although he was in poor health, as one of the chief editors of the Ghost Game Chronicles, he had studied Jiang Yuan's deeds a lot and was familiar with the game that Jiang Yuan had once saved and salvaged.
Jiang Yuan said: "Dan Tai Sui is a strange creature I encountered in a post-apocalyptic science fiction game."
“It is a product synthesized by people using genes from alien creatures in an extreme laboratory. Because it looks like a bright red peony after blooming, it is called [Dan Tai Sui].
A parasite that distorts the host's consciousness."
Its original design concept of fear parasitism was quite impressive, and if it hadn’t encountered an accident, it would have had great potential for success.”
Zhongliang was curious: "What accident?"
Jiang Yuan blinked and said as a matter of course: "It happened to me by accident."
Everyone:......
Okay, okay, you should take every opportunity to brag about yourself, right?
Huo Hu bandaged the palace maid's eyes, thought for a moment, and found a suspicious point in Jiang Yuan's words.
"But how could an artificial creature from the future appear in an ancient game?"
"you still need to ask?"
Zhong Liang folded his hands and said firmly: "It must be caused by the upgrade. It's normal for monsters in one game to appear in another game!"
That's one reason.
But it's far-fetched.
Although the evil god's games are strange, they still follow the most basic time logic. Creations from the future should not appear in ancient times.
Just when Huo Hu was about to ask again, Jiang Yuan said:
“This is not an upgrade.”
He saw the big picture from the small details and told the most disturbing truth simply and clearly---
"It was Jiang Jian who put the two games together."
