Game, Live Stream-Chapter 86
Chapter 86
Xiao Tangqiu completely didn’t feel well. Did he have to have another final meal right after spitting the previous one out?
Help! He did not want to be resurrected at all right now!
Quickly let him out! Let him out!
But that was impossible. Xiao Tangqiu could only desperately look for land. Before resurrecting and possessing a body, he must find land. He didn’t want to fall into the ocean and drown as soon as he was resurrected!
So he frantically searched for land in the endless water, drifting forward towards the direction of the sun. Even after searching for a long time, he couldn’t find any trace of land… Let alone land, he couldn’t even find any shallows in the water!
Just when Xiao Tangqiu almost gave up, he suddenly noticed a small black spot in the distance. As the black spot gradually became larger, it turned out to be a ship!
He was ecstatic! The heavens never gave dead-end roads!
He quickly floated towards the ship. After stopping above the ship, he noticed that the ship seemed a bit unusual. It was a very old and dilapidated wooden ship. Not only was the wood on the hull overgrown, the moss and unidentified sea plants were actually decayed and damaged, and there were multiple large holes in the hull.
On top of the raggedy outside, there were no people on it. There were no sailors on the deck and no one at the helm in the captain’s cabin at the top.
This ship was drifting along the ocean, without a course or destination… It was obviously a ghost ship.
Xiao Tangqiu instantly got excited. A ghost ship! This was one of the most common and classic settings in horror movies and horror games!
A layer of dark brown covered the deck of this ghost ship. Xiao Tangqiu took a closer look and it seemed to be dried up bloodstains. Who knew how many years the bloodstains had dried on the stormy sea, but the color was extremely strange.
He turned his head and floated towards the captain’s room, planning to play at being the captain. Which boy didn’t have the fantasy of being a pirate and conquering the ocean when young?
The captain’s room was locked. But even if the key was found, the big rusty lock might not be able to be opened. However, Xiao Tangqiu was not worried. He ran directly at the door… and he passed through it.
The ghost version of Xiao Tangqiu was unstoppable.
He floated around in the captain’s room for a while and, not surprisingly, found a logbook, an old styled pistol, and a map on the console. There were also some gold coins and an overturned silver wine glass on the floor. The spilled wine had long dried up after however many years it had been.
He subconsciously reached out to look through the logbook, but his hand passed through it… Although the ghost state was invincible, the cons were very obvious. He could only look with his eyes no matter what. To touch with his hands was impossible.
Xiao Tangqiu pulled his hand back in a daze. Just as he was about to float elsewhere to look around, he was struck by dizziness. His body began to sink, and his insides churned as if his organs were all out of place. It felt like someone had thrown his internal organs into a washing machine, crazily turning everything.
The pain was hundreds of times, thousands of times worse than when he died and he soon passed out.
Xiao Tangqiu felt his consciousness fade in and out as a large number of childhood memories suddenly poured into his mind, almost causing his brain to explode. He even “saw” some memories he had long forgotten.
When he and Meng Xinghe first met, they were both only three years old. Meng Xinghe was wearing a beautiful little dress and his little rosy face was like a red apple. His eyes were very big and his eyelashes were very long. He was even more beautiful than a doll. The first time they met, Xiao Tangqiu held his small hand and then stuck out his chest and told his mother that he wanted to marry this beautiful friend.
When he and Meng Xinghe were five years old, Meng Xinghe, this beautiful child, looked even more beautiful. He seriously told Meng Xinghe they should get married when they grew up. Meng Xinghe blinked his big eyes and nodded. Then, the two of them hooked their pinkies together solemnly, making such a naive promise…
“There is someone here! There is a corpse here!”
“Is it the corpse of an NPC? Go and investigate!”
“No, that’s not right! Aaaah! He moved! The corpse moved!”
Xiao Tangqiu’s head and body hurt terribly and he opened his eyes with difficulty, trying hard to see what was in front of him… Wait! His body hurt? He had a body again?!
His heart jumped and his eyes instantly brightened. Several curious and scared faces appeared before him. A group of people hid outside the captain’s room and looked at him as if he was some exotic animal.
Xiao Tangqiu finally reacted. He had resurrected and already ran into so many newbies… Fuck! Did he have to work hard with these newbies to escape this instance before he could return to the City of the Abyss to find Shen Yuan?
Of course, there was also Tang Mianmian and the others.
“This NPC is so weird! Why is he looking at us like this? Like we’re the weird ones! Didn’t all the NPCs we met before immediately accepted this setting?”
“This NPC is indeed really strange! The NPCs we met before were all foreigners! This NPC is Chinese! Is this a pirate ship from China? Then can we take this ship home?”
“You idiot! Can’t you see that this is a ghost ship! The only place to return to is the underworld!”
“Between the underworld and hell, I would choose the underworld. At least there won’t be a language barrier…”
Xiao Tangqiu’s mouth twitched and couldn’t help but ask, “You’re so good at talking, are you a streamer?”
The two people who were talking were stunned and they looked at each other in disbelief, “The NPC in this game actually knows about streaming? Did this profession exist in the Age of Exploration?”
“You’re stupid! There were no computers in the Age of Exploration! I don’t think he’s an NPC!”
Xiao Tangqiu was in a good mood after just being resurrected and couldn’t help teasing the two of them, “Yes, I am indeed an NPC.”
“Are you an NPC?” One of them was a little dumbfounded, “How can an NPC admit that he is an NPC? What kind of NPC are you?”
Xiao Tangqiu sat up with his legs crossed and said solemnly, “I am a mysterious fortune-teller from the East. I know the heavenly secrets and earthly mysteries. Although I live in the Age of Exploration, I can predict the future, so I know that there is a future profession called a streamer. You are all streamers.”
The man was dumbfounded, “Fortune teller NPC… can predict the future? I don’t really believe it! Prove it!”
Xiao Tangqiu casually said some nonsense, “In the not-too-distant future, the Netherlands will become a maritime hegemon, but then it will be defeated by Britain. After the British conquered the seas, they will establish an empire that always sees the sun.”
“History did go something like that…” The man frowned and thought for a while, “Can you really predict the future?”
“Not only that, I can foresee more detailed things, too,” Xiao Tangqiu pretended to be sizing him up, and then said mysteriously, “You should be a gourmet stream host?”
The man cursed, “…You really are godly! Great master! Please tell me my future!”
His companion finally couldn’t stand it anymore and grabbed him, “You are so stupid! This guy is clearly a player too! What predicting the future! He just knows history!”
The man asked blankly, “But he knew that I am a gourmet host…”
The corners of his companion’s mouth twitched, “That can only prove that he has watched your live streams!”
Xiao Tangqiu burst out laughing, “Hello.”
The man finally reacted and snorted unhappily, “You’re so good at talking, are you also a streamer?”
Xiao Tangqiu simply admitted it, “I am a horror game host. I have seen your live streams before. You are the gourmet food host I Love Eating Fatty Meat, right?”
“You really are a streamer, too! So you are also an unlucky guy who had the misfortune to transmigrate into this damned place?” The man soon became angry and opened up to Xiao Tangqiu, “We’re all people of this apocalyptic world! Since we’re all hosts, let’s get to know each other. My real name is Fei You, a gourmet food streamer, and he is Zhang Zuo, and he is also a game streamer like you.”
The man named Zhang Zuo frowned slightly, “With you, our team has four stream hosts. It looks like we’re the streaming team.”
“Four hosts?” Xiao Tangqiu’s heart thudded, “Then the other host is…”
“He’s also a gaming streamer. You gamers have all come to this damned place!” Fei You raised his hands.
Xiao Tangqiu got up without hesitation. He ignored the two men and turned and ran out of the captain’s room. The next moment, he saw an extremely familiar figure on the deck, and hotheadedly blurted out, “Tang Mianmian!”
Tang Mianmian was lying listlessly on the rails on the deck. He was shocked when he heard Xiao Tangqiu’s voice. He turned his head in disbelief and was stunned.
Xiao Tangqiu was also extremely moved, “It’s me! Tang Mianmian! I’m Xiao Tangqiu! I’m back!”
Tang Mianmian was frozen for a long time. Once he confirmed that the person in front of him was not his hallucination, he cried out and rushed towards Xiao Tangqiu.
Just as Xiao Tangqiu was about to run and hug Tang Mianmian, he saw Shen Yuan on the other end of the deck. Shen Yuan was dressed in black, his black windbreaker rustling in the sea breeze, looking at him.
The two pairs of eyes met and Xiao Tangqiu’s heart tensed and then began to beat wildly. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, Shen Yuan’s eyes cooled down, looking just like an icy cold pool without any warmth.
The icy gaze instantly extinguished the heat in Xiao Tangqiu’s heart, as if a basin of cold water poured down his head. He stood there blankly, somewhat at a loss.
Before Xiao Tangqiu could ask, Shen Yuan turned around and left without hesitation.
Duan Hongzhen, Xue Junli, Yu Fuling, and Sai Lulu also spotted Xiao Tangqiu who suddenly appeared. They had different expressions, but seeing Shen Yuan turn and leave, they only glanced at Xiao Tangqiu and quickly followed.
Xiao Tangqiu wanted to catch up, but his feet felt like lead.
At this moment, Tang Mianmian threw himself in front of him and embraced him, “Oh oh oh! You didn’t die! You didn’t die! I just knew that the good die young and scourges live forever! This is great! Great!!”
Xiao Tangqiu’s heart felt empty, but he still forced out a smile and reached out and patted Tang Mianmian on the shoulder, “…Mhm, I’m not dead. I’m back.”
