The flames under the rows of pots were suddenly exposed to an abundant amount of oxygen and the flames, like a greedy phoenix, rose up in an attempt to swallow Nan Zhou and Li Yinhang hovering above it.
The sense of weightlessness made Li Yinhang bite her lips.
Even without opening her eyes, she could guess what was happening by virtue of the searing heat coming from beneath her.
The scene must be similar to falling through hell.
However, just as the fire caught along the hem of Nan Zhou’s windbreaker, Jiang Fang rushed through the air and swung up, kicking the display shelf and landing on the edge of the floor.
With a muffled sound, Nan Zhou made a move.
He reached into the storage and pulled out the item [Right Hand Light Finger Chain] and cast a red silky thread towards the door, guided by the light of the raging flames.
The silk thread wrapped around the exposed doorknob.
The thread on Nan Zhou’s side was pulled upwards at a high speed, dragging the two people along with it to escape from hell.
Nan Zhou leapt up and turned around, crouching onto the trembling light rays that were returning toward the finger.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he flicked his index and middle fingers, and two beams of candy-colored light traversed across the room and raced towards the brother and sister who were stunned to see him fleeing!
The two of them were standing together, and there was no place to run. They were cornered.
After tying the two little devil children together in a lasso, Nan Zhou successfully settled beside the broken shelf.
He threw Li Yinhang to Jiang Fang, his other hand wrapped around the light twice and pulled downward with force.
The two siblings screamed, tied back to back, they were hung alive from the chandelier in the center of the room.
Nan Zhou hung the siblings up like two meat dumplings. He freed his fingers and tied the light thread to the doorknob.
The two siblings were like little bacon strips hanging above the flame…
Feeling the heat beneath her feet, the sister kicked off her pretty little boots in fear and cried out in a shrill voice.
The brother stared at the three players with fierce eyes.
Nan Zhou did not care about them.
As the NPC of an instance, Nan Zhou understood them. This, however, did not mean that their mess would be tolerated.
This was an issue of their professional ability and they should rethink it again.
The door handle looked familiar.
It resembled the door handle in the brain marrow corridor.
Jiang Fang held Li Yinhang with one hand and pressed down on the door.
Nan Zhou cooperated well and quickly flashed inside.
Indeed, they came back.
After pushing open the door, they had not succeeded in getting out of this game.
Hunger still haunted them like maggots on their bones.
They were standing in the woods where they were transported when they first walked through the door.
The difference was that the trees that arced behind them, and the vines that wrapped around them, had all disappeared.
It had opened up to an unknown path, in the exact opposite direction of the candy house.
After experiencing the thrilling confrontation just now, she thought they could leave, but instead, they had once again entered a new “mystery” situation, Li Yinhang feeling a loss of strength, leaned against the tree in frustration, and gasped, as her legs shook uncontrollably.
The symptoms of starvation started to flare up further.
Dizziness, weakness, wobbly legs.
Like a greedy animal, hunger was eating away at their stomachs in small bites.
Nan Zhou and Jiang Fang’s situation was similar to hers.
After passing the level just now, their hunger amplified instead of going away. They were so hungry that they could feel the stomach acid burning and boiling in their bodies.
Nan Zhou found some food from the storage and handed it to her.
Jiang Fang also took out some food, “Eat slowly, chew with your teeth, don’t swallow it.”
Li Yinhang, who felt like she could swallow a cow in a second, had to resist the urge to gobble it down, biting the edge of a piece of dried meat with her teeth and chewing slowly.
She almost cried when she took a bite of compressed dried meat and the fine fiber of the meat burst out in her mouth.
She found meat so savory for the first time.
Nan Zhou didn’t talk when he was hungry, just held a biscuit and munched on it.
Jiang Fang suggested, “We still have plenty of food. you can also find linden trees, oak trees, or birch trees, and I will teach you which parts can be eaten.”
Li Yinhang swallowed a mouthful of meat and asked in a small voice, “Where are we headed?”
Nan Zhou, who ate three cookies in a row, said, “First, we’ll look for the candy house, then the swamp. And then, we’ll turn around and see what’s over there in the woods.”
As soon as she heard about such a long journey, Li Yinhang’s legs went soft.
With every step they took, they had to consume physical energy in geometric multiples.
The torture of hunger made Li Yinhang even think of quitting.
Instead, she said nothing and reluctantly stood up, following behind them.
Nan Zhou’s decision seemed to be a waste of energy, but it was indeed extremely valuable.
Li Yinhang found that the woods here were drastically different from the woods they had walked through last time.
There was no breadcrumb-like trail of snow-white pebbles on the ground.
The road was barren.
The overgrown bushes by the road kept yanking at their pants.
The trees were not lined up in the same orderly fashion as before.
The swamp was no different from what they had seen last time.
And in the candy house, there were neither children nor the witch.
Due to the fear of stepping on the floor trap, they did not go inside to check.
With just a few glances from outside, Nan Zhou could tell that the decor was significantly different from the last time they saw it.
On the floor was a pot that had fallen over.
From the mouth of the pot, a section of a white human finger bone with loose meat was poking out.
The shape looked like a skeleton trying to crawl from hell to earth.
Seeing this scene, Nan Zhou speculated that they had returned to the candy house at another point in time.
It should be after the witch was killed by the two siblings.
The siblings fled home.
And the candy house was abandoned, with no one to take care of it.
Then, the brother and sister should now be in their home right.
After their journey to the swamp and back to the candy house, the energy they had just replenished was also exhausted.
The three understood that the candy house was inedible.
Instead of feeling uncomfortable by looking at the candy house, they simply turned back immediately, eating as much as possible on the road, and looking for the siblings’ original home.
In the last level, they opened the secret door in the candy house and reentered the forest.
By analogy, they should look for the next door.
There were no sounds of birds or animals in the forest, only the sound of their feet, which sounded rather eerie.
Jiang Fang was looking around and walking, thinking about it.
Not only are there no birds and beasts in the forest, there weren’t any edible ferns or mushrooms either.
He managed to find a fungus pit, approached, and “groped” for a while, only to get a few pus-producing mycelia with a pungent smell on his fingertips.
Even the poisonous mushrooms were dug up and hollowed out…
It seemed that right now, they had no new food sources, they could only eat what they had.
In the original fairy tale of “Candy House”, after the siblings were abandoned by their father in the forest, there were no signs to guide them, and they could not find their way back home at all.
The hunger, accompanied by the anxiety of the unknown road ahead, made a gloomy mood surface.
Nan Zhou had thought that they would have to spend more time searching for the brother and sister.
However, after they had walked through the dense forest for half an hour, a strong smell of meat led the trio to their destination directly.
——A cabin overflowing with warm light.
It was just getting dark when they walked out of the dense forest.
The three of them sneaked all the way to the window below the foyer.
Nan Zhou leaned on the edge of the window, and looked into the house.
Not surprisingly, he saw the brother and sister.
The two little ones were dressed the same as before.
They were wearing velvet ready-made clothes, which at first glance was expensive, not something that the woodcutter’s son and daughter could easily enjoy.
This further confirmed what Nan Zhou and the others had discovered.
In this timeline, the siblings had gone through the whole process of starving, killing the witch, and escaping from the candy house with the witch’s treasure.
Now, it should be the tender moment of “brother, sister, and father lived a happy and beautiful life”.
But their appearance was much more bizarre and ferocious than before.
The two siblings sat at the table, their faces uniformly green, their cheeks sunken, as if they’d been starving for ten days.
The table was rich in food but bizarre.
There was meat, there was chicken.
There were braised squirrels, birds fried crispy.
There was also a plate of raw leaves and mushrooms.
The sister buried her head in her food and gulped down a mouthful of cooked meat, but her frown showed no sign of relief.
She tore off another bird’s leg, opened a mouth full of small white teeth, and chewed along with the bones.
The brother simply grabbed a handful of bright green leaves and shoved them into his mouth.
Nan Zhou had good eyesight and found a fat snow-white caterpillar lying on the leaves.
But the brother ignored it and shoved it straight into his mouth.
The plant made a loud “pop” in his mouth as the poor caterpillar was crushed alive in his mouth. Its juicy innards and mushy skin dripped down his chin as the boy kept chewing with no regard for mannerisms.
They keep grunting like feasting hogs, but their faces showed absolutely no enjoyment in the act, instead a mechanical numbness of repression and an incomprehensible suffering.
After a short while, the sister slumped desperately on the table and moaned breathlessly.
“I’m so hungry.”
“Daddy, we’re so hungry-“
