The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 349

Nan XiangWan: "There's a talisman, stuck on this zombie's forehead!"

Lan Tianyou quickly yelled: "Don't take it off whatever you do..."

Before he could finish speaking, Nan XiangWan had already ripped the talisman off the zombie's forehead and was waving it around in her hand.

Lan Tianyou: "!!!"

Run away quick! The zombie is going to come out!

The NPC lying in the coffin was baffled. This was a clichéd plot that even normal people could recognize, yet Nan XiangWan wasn't following common sense!

Did it want to come out and scare people or not?

At this moment, Gu Beihuai came over with Lan Tianyou. As the two passed by the coffin, the NPC lying inside finally struggled free from his existential crisis.

"Roar!"

The zombie suddenly sat up, its face painted a ghastly pale color, its corpse hands pressing against the outside of the coffin, beginning its daily routine of trying to scare people.

Sure enough, Lan Tianyou started screaming in a steady high pitched male voice.

Gu Beihuai rubbed his ears, pondering whether to ask the company to develop some other vocal techniques for this boy.

What a waste of such a voice if he didn't become a performer!

At this time, Nan XiangWan didn't care about the NPC in the coffin at all. She had already moved on to the next tightly shut coffin and started prying it open.

Bang! Bang bang bang!

And so, Nan XiangWan excitedly scurried from coffin to tightly shut coffin, opening one lid after another, as happy as a lively little duck.

She moved quickly, opening one and moving on to the next before the NPC lying inside could even climb out.

Thus, the terrifying scenes that followed were all directed at Gu Beihuai and Lan Tianyou who had just caught up!

Naturally, Gu Beihuai was unafraid as he believed in science.

But Lan Tianyou had it bad. He screamed and cried the entire way.

The scene was uproariously funny again, with barrage after barrage of 666 comments scrolling across the screen!

Nan Wang's behavior was quite witty!

It scared the crap out of that little waste Lan Jinli.

After going through the passageway, Nan XiangWan was holding four talismans in her hands, all peeled from the foreheads of zombies inside the coffins.

But she couldn't understand what these objects were. She played around with them for a bit while waiting for Gu Beihuai and Lan Tianyou to catch up.

There was almost no light around them, so Gu Beihuai moved very slowly, even needing Lan Tianyou to clear obstacles ahead.

Lan Tianyou had no choice but to open his eyes wide to act as Gu Beihuai's eyes. After witnessing countless horrifying scenes along the way, he was scared silly.

After the three regrouped, Gu Beihuai immediately stretched out his hand.

Nan XiangWan felt a little embarrassed. She took hold of him.

Just now she had been too preoccupied with playing around that she completely forgot about her comrades.

Gu Beihuai said firmly: "Don't let go again."

Nan XiangWan: "I won't."

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Gu Beihuai's mouth as he felt the little paw of his cub in his palm. It was exceptionally warm and tender.

At the side, Lan Tianyou was still badly frightened: "Gu Heavenly King, hold my hand too, I'm scared!"

Gu Beihuai promptly shoved his other hand into his pocket, leaving Lan Tianyou grasping at air!

Lan Tianyou: "......"

His life was too difficult!

After the three finally arrived at the round wooden space, they took out the talismans and started examining them.

Mainly it was Gu Beihuai examining them. Lan Tianyou didn't see any danger around so out of curiosity, he went to touch the uneven parts of the walls.

As for Nan XiangWan, she sat down on the ground and started looking at her system panel.

After finishing the song and then dinner and watching Lan Jinli make a fool of himself, she still hadn't had a chance to check her mission status!

【Mission Complete: Strong Feelings】

【Congratulations Host for obtaining 1st Place in the 5th Issue of The Singer! 】

【Reward: B&W Nautilus Seashell Speakers, worth 600,000RMB!】

...

【Ding!】

【Triggered Mission: Rap】

【Mission Requirements: Host is required to perform a song with a rap theme on stage at the 6th Issue of The Singer】

【Mission Rewards: To be announced based on final ranking】

Nan XiangWan directly ignored the later missions and looked at Dogfood Emperor's reward for the speakers.

Weren't they just speakers! How could a pair of speakers be worth 600,000RMB?

So expensive!

But she liked them!

Previously, Dogfood Emperor's rewards had all been cash rebates, so why did it suddenly change today to reward her with speakers?

Given Dogfood Emperor's usual bizarre predictive abilities, Nan XiangWan started pondering the connections behind this.

But after thinking it over for half the day, she couldn't figure it out.

Oh well!

She was perfectly happy just accepting them!

At this moment, Lan Tianyou let out a shriek from the side, then frantically crawled back towards Nan XiangWan and Gu Beihuai, trying to squeeze in between them.

Nan XiangWan: "???"

Gu Beihuai seamlessly reached out his hand and picked up Lan Tianyou, tossing him to the side.

Don't let anyone get between him and his little cub!

Lan Tianyou: "A hand, a hand stretched out from inside there, ah ah ah!"

Nan XiangWan: "A human's?"

Lan Tianyou: "A person's hand, ah ah ah!"

Nan XiangWan: "Why the hell would you be scared of a person's hand? It's not like it was a ghost's hand!"

Lan Tianyou: "That seems logical but I'm still scared."

Gu Beihuai had nothing more to say. He stood up and walked over.

At this time, in the uneven wall surface opposite them, an opening had appeared in the pitch dark hole. Whenever someone approached, a hand would stretch out to grab at them.

Gu Beihuai observed it closely for a while: "It's probably looking to trade something?"

As he spoke, he took out a talisman and handed it over.

The moment the hand touched the talisman, it immediately retracted back into the hole with the talisman. Shortly after, a box was handed out.

It was a wooden box with a three digit combination lock on it.

Gu Beihuai directly threw the box to Lan Tianyou: "Open it."

Lan Tianyou: "There's a lock, I don't know the code."

Gu Beihuai: "That's exactly why I'm letting you open it. If it was just a key lock, I wouldn't give it to you."

Lan Tianyou: "......"

Barrage comment:

Hahahaha Lan Jinli!

I'm dead! Now Gu Heavenly King is too lazy to bother cracking it. He just throws it to Lan Tianyou to handle!

Lan Jinli, quickly show off your skills (more like lack of them)!

...

Amidst waves of mocking barrage comments, Lan Tianyou gritted his teeth and randomly fiddled with the lock a little.

Click! The lock opened.

Lan Tianyou covered his face and cried out miserably: "Wahhh! Won't people mistakenly think I'm a thief? I really don't know the code!"

Nan XiangWan rolled her eyes. Why did this guy overthink so much? If it was her who had such heaven-defying luck, she'd buy lottery tickets every day!

But the more Lan Tianyou was like this, the more obliviously he lived steeped in his luck.

The barrage was already laughing hysterically. One of the highlights of this show was Lan Jinli's BUG-like existence.

Inside the box was the head of a little wooden person. Its round bald head had a nose and mouth in front, while its eyes were located at the back of its head instead.

It was exquisitely made, even polished to be shiny!

Nan XiangWan picked it up and played around with it. "So cute!"

Lan Tianyou's mouth twitched. "You actually find it cute?"

At this time, Gu Beihuai turned around: "There are still three talismans left. They're probably used in exchanges of three things. Lan Tianyou, go find some more."

After all, he wouldn't be able to find them himself, so he still had to rely on Lan Tianyou's luck to discover them by touch.

Lan Tianyou: "Then you two follow behind me, I'm scared."

Nan XiangWan: "Why the f**k would you be scared!"

Although she said that, the wise brain still followed behind Lan Tianyou and witnessed his entire god-like process of relying on his luck to open one hidden spot after another that Gu Beihuai had searched half a day for but failed to find even one.

This guy really did have heaven-defying luck. Gu Beihuai searched fruitlessly for a long time yet with just a little fumbling, Lan Tianyou managed to discover all three hidden spots.

Three hands stretched out simultaneously from the half-opened hidden spots in the air, grabbing about!
