Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1727 In the Deadly Game 14

The next morning, the tour guide let everyone go freely and said, "If I can see you all again tonight, I hope you can give me a five-star rating~"

The other newcomers didn't think there was anything wrong with the tour guide's words. Jiang Xinxin knew at a glance that their attention was on the five-star reviews. After all, even if they didn't shop online, they must have heard of the five-star reviews routine.

After leaving the house, Jiang Xinxin sighed, feeling that she really couldn't bear to watch it.

Ruan Lanzhu comforted him without any sincerity: "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Even if you have extraordinary abilities, you can't stop someone from dying."

When they arrived at the lookout tower, Ling Jiushi was responsible for attracting "Xu Jin's" attention, Ruan Lanzhu stayed to protect Ling Jiushi, and Jiang Xinxin went to find the old lady who was grinding medicine.

This time, the grandmother didn't shy away from discussing the matter between the elder and younger sisters. She said, "At first, the elder and younger sisters met a young man who came from outside the village to collect folk songs. Later, both sisters fell in love with him, but he fell in love with the elder sister and rejected the younger sister."

"The younger sister heard from somewhere that a human skin drum could transcend life and death and make one's wishes come true. So she peeled off her own skin and spent three years making a human skin drum. She then peeled off her sister's skin and put it on herself to meet the young man."

"But I didn't expect that the young man still only loves her sister..."

Although I knew it was the younger sister who killed the older sister, I didn't expect the younger sister to be so ruthless and shocking.

Jiang Xinxin returned to the observation deck and lowered her voice to Ruan Lanzhu, saying, "That drum on the observation deck was made by my sister using her own skin. It's said to be able to transcend life and death and make people's wishes come true."

Ruan Lanzhu quickly figured out the key and couldn't help but gasp.

Everyone wants to get the drum, but the sister wearing Xu Jin's skin is the biggest obstacle.

After hearing the whole story, Li Dongyuan wanted to help hold "Xu Jin" back, but when everyone found the drum, his sister was already squatting in front of it.

Jiang Xinxin said loudly, "Don't be so stubborn. You may have truly loved Ah Hui before, but from the moment Ah Hui fell in love with your sister, your feelings for Ah Hui completely changed."

"You think you have a deep affection for Ah Hui. To get him, you're willing to hurt yourself and your siblings. In reality, you're only obsessed with defeating your sister!"

My sister slowly turned around and stood up. The skin on her face and neck was peeling off because of the powder. Her eyes were no longer timid, but filled with fierceness and hatred.

Although her sister looked very embarrassed, she ignored Jiang Xinxin and instead shouted at Ling Jiushi.

Ling Jiushi suddenly felt a stinging pain in his ears and head, and those long-lost memories resurfaced. Even though he was an adult, those experiences would affect him.

The younger sister angrily said to Ling Jiushi: "You and I are the same people, abandoned and hurt. Why don't you share the same heart with me?!"

"She's always been better than me in everything since we were little. Whether it's love or attention, she gets it all!"

Ling Jiushi interrupted his sister directly: "My past experiences can still affect me, but I only cherish what I have now and won't covet what others have. That's why we are different!"

The younger sister was so angry that she rushed forward and wanted to attack Ling Jiushi. Jiang Xinxin and Ruan Lanzhu had been waiting for this opportunity for a while. Before the younger sister could get close to Ling Jiushi, she was grabbed by the two men.

Li Dongyuan was a man of good sense. He and Obsidian's companion took his sister's human skin drum, and followed Jiang Xinxin, Ruan Lanzhu and others to the exhibition hall.

On the roof of the exhibition hall, a drum sound would still be heard whenever someone stepped on it. The younger sister was already trembling with fear. No wonder the previous "Xu Jin" had always been afraid of the drum sound. It turned out that the drum sound would attract her sister's revenge.

Jiang Xinxin shouted towards the pile of bones, "We brought her here."

As she spoke, Jiang Xinxin also started to beat the drum that her sister gave them.

As soon as the younger sister saw the drum in Jiang Xinxin's hand, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground. Ruan Lanzhu had no pity for her younger sister. He took the rope that his companions had found and tied her up tightly.

The elder sister emerged from the pile of bones again amidst the drumbeats. The younger sister was so frightened that she kept thrashing on the ground. Jiang Xinxin stopped the elder sister from approaching her younger sister and said, "We need to get out. We need the door and the key."

My sister took the drumstick made of her own leg bones from Jiang Xinxin's hand and slid it on the ground. A bloody crack appeared on the ground, and the door rose from the bloody crack.

There was also the key. The sister just thought about it and the key was in Jiang Xinxin's shirt pocket. Jiang Xinxin took it out quietly and while everyone's attention was mostly on her sister and younger sister, she stuffed the key to Ruan Lanzhu.

The elder sister directly peeled off the skin that belonged to Xu Jin from her younger sister, took out her own skin from inside and put it on, then turned to Ling Jiushi and said: "I know you are not him, but I won't let her hurt you."

After saying that, the elder sister jumped off the roof holding her younger sister. Jiang Xinxin reached out to pull her, but then gave up.

Ruan Lanzhu comforted Jiang Xinxin, "You also said that even though my sister did have pure love for Ah Hui at the beginning, after I made my relationship with Ah Hui clear, my sister's love for Ah Hui changed."

"What's more, my sister is too selfish and too extreme."

“While selfishness isn’t necessarily a bad thing, extremes are definitely not right.”

"The elder sister took the younger sister away, probably out of consideration for her lover, Ah Hui. Although we haven't heard anything about Ah Hui, seeing how much the younger sister cares about Ling Ling, I think Ah Hui may have met with an unexpected disaster at her hands."

Ling Jiushi opened the door and quickly got the clue to his next door. Jiang Xinxin walked out with everyone, and her understanding of the world inside the door changed a little.

As soon as he went out, Ling Jiushi sent him the clue of his next door, which was the story of a middle school student named Lu Zuozi.

The name Lu Zuozi doesn't sound like something a local would come up with. Jiang Xinxin intuitively felt that the story originally took place on the eastern island. Combined with the inevitable problem of school bullying among middle school students there, she was able to find a lot of information.

Jiang Xinxin happily shared this information with Ling Jiushi and Ruan Lanzhu. "This story originates from an island in the east. A middle school student had both her legs broken on a snowy night. With no one to help her, she tragically died in despair. Even more tragically, her story was made into a ballad and sung."

"The last two lines of this ballad roughly mean 'I have no legs, can you give me yours?' When someone sings this line, Saeko will appear and take away the singer's legs."
