TISHW 89




 Chapter 89 The secret of hidden treasure 15

From his appearance, it was as if he were entering his own restaurant, which was inexplicably reassuring. Jiang Yu followed him at once. She was starving.

After entering, the room was very large. It was indeed very dark as warned outside the door. The curtains were tightly closed, almost no sunlight could penetrate in. The only light source was the three candlesticks in the middle of table. Each candlestick had three candles lit. Only around the candles could be seen quite clearly.

The dining table was a long three or four meters table, covered with a white tablecloth. It was filled with a variety of food, including fried chicken, burgers, pizza, pasta, asian style rice, dumplings, stew, etc. The large table was full and exuding an alluring fragrance.

"Wow, it's so rich!" Shu Hua couldn't wait to step forward. Jiang Yu wasn't the only one who was hungry at this moment.

Then as she spoke, a number on the wall suddenly changed, jumping directly from 20 to 58. The red number was particularly conspicuous in the dim light. Everyone saw it.

Shu Hua quickly lowered her voice, "What is that?"

Ye Yuanyu came closer and whispered, "It's a decibel meter."

Jian Cang whispered, "So that's what it meant by eating quietly. What would happen if the voice is louder?"

He even felt a slight urge.

Zhou Feifei stopped him, shook the paper in her hand and whispered, "There is a letter here."

Everyone gathered around. Zhou Feifei whispered softly, "Smart fools, as someone who has been there, I will give you some advice. This is indeed a dining hall. The food on the table belongs to you, but you belong to others. Those vampires will sleep during the day and here is next to their bedroom. They will be woken up once the sound exceeds 60 decibels, so keep it down. After three times they will wake up completely and come to here for a late-night snack."

Shu Hua realized at once, "No wonder! The castle, the rose carvings, the cursive calligraphy... the owner of the castle isn't injured but is afraid of bright light. Is it because he is a vampire?"

Jian Cang asked, "Why did it suddenly head into the supernatural direction?"

Xiang Chen said, "It's normal. After all, having treasures to get everything you want isn't within the scope of science."

Zhou Feifei continued to read, "So try to escape from this room before waking them up. Of course, even escaping from this room is useless. After all, the entire castle belongs to them. If there are many of you and you can leave a person each time when you encounter them. This way, they’ll spend at least half an hour to eat."

"Just a reminder, they prefer to eat stupid people, because smart people are more troublesome. That’s why, they will choose the stupidest one among you to suck blood."

Everyone:...

Xiang Chen shook his head, "This is the first time I've heard that someone likes stupid people."

Jian Cang lamented, "The chosen ones are too miserable. They are about to die and ends up suffering humiliation before they die..."

【Hahaha, when you think about it, it’s true. Just eat me, why call me stupid. It’s too much. 】

Ye Yuanyu asked, "How do they know who is the stupidest person?"

Zhou Feifei continued to read, "Their measurement standard is related to gold coins. They like gold coins. The more gold coins you have, the smarter they will think you are. Of course, there are probably other measurement standards. I’m not too clear on it."

"There is no harm in getting more gold coins. After all, these can be taken away. One gold coin here can be exchanged for 100 million. Enough gold coins can be exchanged for wish coins, which can realize any of your wishes. That's all I know. I hope you can last here longer."

Ye Yuanyu said, "Any wish? So the wish coin may be the secret of this treasure?"

Xiang Chen said, "It should be. We have to find it to know."

Zhou Feifei said, "We first have to leave here successfully." She continued to read the last paragraph of the letter, "Oh, one last reminder for you, there are many troublemakers in the room. They are very willing to see you being eaten. Got to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Shu Hua immediately shrank to Jiang Yu and said cautiously, "What does he mean by this? Troublemaker? Are there other things in this room?"

It was okay if she didn't say it. Now that she did, she seemed to feel that there was something terrible hiding in the corner where the candle couldn't illuminate it.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuanyu consciously took a few steps further away, at least three people away from Shu Hua to ensure that she would never be able to pounce on him.

Shu Hua glared at him when she saw this. Xiang Chen chuckled and seamlessly separated from the two to avoid them from making trouble again, "So to sum it up, first, in this room, we can’t make any sounds exceeding 60 decibels three times. Second, we must find the exit before waking up the vampire. Third, everyone must find gold coins. It’s best to find more, otherwise the one with the fewest coins may be chosen and eaten by the vampire."

Qin Shiyu added with a drawl, "Fourth, fill her stomach before leaving."

Because he wanted to prevent triggering the decibel meter, his voice wasn't loud. An obvious mirth could be heard in his voiceh.

Everyone looked at Jiang Yu in unison, who was holding a fried chicken leg and preparing to stuff it into her mouth:...

Xiang Chen smiled slightly, "That's right, let's eat first. Only when we are full can we have the strength to work."

After that, he directly found a glove and picked up a burger.

Others started to move. After all, they were all starving.

Jiang Yu silently glared at Qin Shiyu. Qin Shiyu couldn't help but grin and picked up a chicken drumstick to eat. It seemed to taste good.

Zhou Feifei was pondering about the task, "Where is the gold coin mentioned in the letter? Are there any clues mentioned in the previous levels?"

"No," Shu Hua picked up a plate and suddenly caught sight of a shining object from the corner of her eye. She reached out and took it out, "Is this it?"

Everyone looked at the golden ball in her hand, which was slightly larger than a coin:...

Jian Cang immediately took out three chopsticks and used it in place of incense. He placed them in front of his forehead and bowed three times to Shu Hua, "Emperor Luck, please accept my bow and help me get the most gold coins."

Everyone burst into laughter, Xiang Chen said, "It seems that the gold coins are scattered randomly. Let's look around."

Now no one couldeat peacefully. They all took the food that was easy to grab in their hands and looked through the dining table while eating. Ye Yuanyu reminded, "Look for clues to leave while we’re at it and arrange the escape first."

The group found this reasonable. At the dark corners far away from the dining table, Shu Hua peered toward it but didn't dare to go over, "Didn't the letter mention some troublemakers..."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone felt something passing above their heads. When they looked up, they saw a terrifying face. Shu Hua, Jian Cang and Zhou Feifei screamed in unison. The decibel meter on the wall jumped to 100.

Jiang Yu's heart was beating fast. Her hair ends were standing. She clearly felt the top of her head being touched just now. The hair of that ghost head slid over her head!

Intellectually she knew it was fake, but when she thought of the ghost's hair touching her head, her body was so stiff that she couldn't move...

There was a sudden warmth on her head. Then the temperature and strength disappeared quickly. Although it was a touch away, it was enough to bring Jiang Yu back to her senses. Qin Shiyu's voice sounded in her ears, "What are you thinking about? Try this. "

Maybe it was because she had been frightened, Jiang Yu felt that his tone was somewhat gentle and comforting. She breathed out a breath and lowered her head to see him holding a fork which pierced a piece of crystal clear meat. The braised pork was placed close to her mouth. It was probably because his movements were too natural or Jiang Yu was a little confused, she took in the tempting meat and slurped it into her mouth.

Qin Shiyu smiingly watched her, "Is it delicious?"

Jiang Yu's taste buds were soothed by the aroma of meat. Her body finally relaxed. She nodded, "It's delicious."

Then Qin Shiyu changed to chopsticks and picked up a few more pieces of meat and put them on her plate.

Jiang Yu:……

It couldn’t that he wanted her to be his taste tester?

The audience couldn’t stand it anymore:

【Qin Shiyu, what are you doing? Be careful, you might lose your Brother-in-law status! 】

While some people hold different opinions:

【Qin Shiyu is actually comforting Jiang Yu, right? The camera captured it very clear. The ghost's hair slid directly over Jiang Yu's head. After that, Jiang Yu became motionless. She must had been frightened. 】

【My Elder Sister Yu is actually afraid of something? 】

【Except for Qin Shiyu, normal person has something to fear. 】

【So he rubbed Jiang Yu’s head just now, right?! I want to ship it, but isn’t sure. Since you said so, I treat it as a rub! No, he definitely rubbed it! 】

【Even if you aren't sure when about the rub, the meat feeding is clear. Who didn't know that Jiang Yu is a foodie and loves meat the most. 】

【That's right! Qin Shiyu never cares about what he eats, so how could he possibly find someone to taste it? 】

【Waaaaaaaa, I feel like I’m going to ship the real thing! 】

So clueless audience felt that they had missed the big show:

【What happened? My attention was focused on the frightened Shu Hua and the others. What happened to Qin Shiyu and Jiang Yu? 】

【Shu Hua and the others were scared to death over there. Is it appropriate for you to fall in love here? If you do it again, I will forgive you. 】

In the camera perspective, Qin Shiyu and Jiang Yu were very close to each other. Shu Hua soon intervened.

Jian Cang and Shu Hua, who had come back to their senses, covered their mouths tightly. The number on the decibel meter finally dropped.

Shu Hua mentally collapsed, "That's what the troublemakers mean! They actually scare people!"

Ye Yuanyu said, "So the time we persist until strike three may not be long."

Xiang Chen said, "Fortunately, we are mentally prepared. Let's all pay attention and try not to scream."

Shu Hua looked at Jiang Yu who was eating meat calmly. Immediately, she ran over and pushed Qin Shiyu aside and linked Jiang Yu's arm, "I want to be next to Bigshot. The Bigshot have a sense of safety."

Jiang Yu froze. How did she come up with this illusion?

Qin Shiyu looked at Jiang Yu's expression with a smile in his eyes. When his eyes fell on Shu Hua, he narrowed his eyes...
