Global Collapse

Chapter 939 Ren-style calligraphy
He thought a lot, but he never expected that the person in front of him was Gu Mian.

Isn't Anzhi Tinglan on good terms with Gu Mian?
Why did he run back after seeing Gu Mian?

But Ren Leshan didn't care about any of that; he just wanted to get rid of Gu Mian behind him as soon as possible.

Although he hadn't seen Gu Mian's name on the list provided by the instance, he suspected that she had entered the instance, and now he saw that it was indeed the case.

The ghost behind him saw Gu Mian at almost the same time. The two of them moved in a surprisingly consistent manner, both of them suddenly stopped and then turned around and ran back the way they came, but one ran on the ground and the other ran upside down.

The speed of Anzhi Tinglan in front had slowed down a bit, and soon the two people and the ghost were squeezed together, scrambling to escape from the U-shaped tunnel.

Gu Mian was getting closer and closer, almost squeezing into their group.

Anzhi Tinglan, who was still at the front, noticed a sticky area not far away and immediately ran towards it.

That was probably an obstacle zone. She had a guess in her mind that she needed to go in and verify. If her guess was correct, this obstacle zone might be able to help her stop Gu Mian.

Thinking this, she stepped into the area that was covered from top to bottom with what appeared to be asphalt.

A panel immediately appeared in front of me.

Congratulations on arriving at the adhesion zone!

[Adhesive Zone: This area is covered with a black, glue-like substance. Anyone who enters will be firmly stuck to this substance and unable to move. It seems that the one who breaks free first is the victor.]

Sure enough, this was an area with obstacles.

As soon as she stepped in, it felt as if a thousand-pound weight was tied to her feet; the black substance on the ground was sticky.

Because she ran in quickly and lightly for the first few steps, she was completely stuck when she reached roughly the middle of the area, and could no longer lift her feet.

The ghosts and Renle Mountain that followed followed suit, all fleeing into this sticky area.

Ghosts are unfathomable, but she guessed that Ren Leshan probably saw her come in and followed her in.

The adhesion zone treats every organism that enters this area equally.

The ghosts that escaped were also firmly stuck to the ceiling, and there was also that sticky stuff on the ceiling.

The ghost was stuck and couldn't move, but the expression on its face seemed to be one of relief—Anzhi Tinglan didn't know how she could analyze the other's expression from a rotten ghost face.

She was doing reading comprehension exercises while making funny faces when Gu Mian arrived from behind.

He seemed uninterested in himself or the ghost, heading straight for Renle Mountain, where he was stuck.

"Is there a deep hatred between these two people..." An Zhitinglan pondered to herself.

But everyone is equal in the sticky zone. Gu Mian had only taken two steps after entering when he was also stuck to it.

The scene suddenly became somewhat eerie.

The three people and one ghost were like four mice stuck on a sticky mouse board, but none of them thought of running away. In fact, they and the ghost next to them even felt a sense of relief.

Everyone's stuck and can't move for a while. Now that's enough, they should be able to rest, right?

A few seconds later, three more mice appeared next to the sticky mouse trap.

"Doctor!" The fat man arrived late. He saw Gu Mian stuck to the ground and looked very anxious. He was about to step in and pull Gu Mian off.

Guigu, who was standing next to him, tugged at him and told him that if he went in, they would all get stuck together, and only then did the fat man stop.

The three people outside discussed it for a moment, took off their coats and laid them on the ground, then hopped over to Gu Mian's side.

It's worth mentioning that the three people's clothes weren't long enough, so the fat man had to use the ghost he was holding as a mat on the ground to pave a path for everyone to reach Gu Mian.

Gu Mian headed straight for Ren Le Mountain. Their location wasn't far from Ren Le Mountain, and when the group arrived beside Gu Mian, they conveniently placed Ren Le Mountain in the middle. Ren Le Mountain's face was even thicker than the black mucus in the adhesion zone.

Seeing that no one was coming towards her, An Zhitinglan tried to keep a low profile and watched Gu Mian's love and hate drama from the sidelines.

The ghost hanging upside down to the side was the same, especially when it saw its companion cosplaying on the carpet on the ground, its body became even stiffer than before.

Judging from the unfolding plot on Gu Mian's side, even though Ren Leshan hadn't uttered a single word yet, she could tell that a major drama was about to unfold.

But then she noticed that Guigu was looking in her direction.

Anzhi Tinglan sensed something was wrong.

Guigu wasn't that concerned about Renle Mountain; he wanted to figure out something.

"How many obstacles did you tell me about on the third floor?" he asked, glancing up at the sticky area surrounding them. This was the third floor, and it contained obstacles.

But Anzhi Tinglan had previously told him that there were zero obstacles on the third floor.

"It's zero." She still hasn't changed her tune. "Since you know Sweetheart Seven and know that she set the number of obstacles on the third floor, you should understand that she's capable of doing something this stupid."

"But this area with obstacles is right in front of us."

"You think this floor has three floors?"

Anzhi Tinglan's words startled Guigu. Counting down from the top, this was indeed the third floor.

But he soon realized it.

The phrase "岸芷汀兰" may not refer to the flow from top to bottom, but rather from bottom to top.

If you consider the entire shopping mall as a claw machine, the bottom floor is the first floor, which is what he considers the fourth floor to be the first floor.

From bottom to top, the floor they were on was not the third floor, but the second floor!
That is, the number of layers set by Anzhitinglan, and the number of obstacles on the second layer is two—if Anzhitinglan is not lying to him.

"Judging from your expression, are you thinking you miscalculated the number of floors?"

Guigu looked at her: "You thought of this when we were on the stairs, didn't you?"

That's why he was sent to the next level first, because he knew that the next level was actually the third level, an area without obstacles.

I stayed below, waiting for others to reach the third level before entering the second level, which had obstacles.

This person's mind is truly full of calculations at all times.

"But what's the point of lying to people about going to the third floor where there are no obstacles?" Guigu knew that Anzhi Tinglan was not a good person, but if she wasn't in her way, she wouldn't bother to do something that would harm others without benefiting herself.

"If I'm captured by a ghost on the upper level, will it benefit the orchids on the other side?" Guigu thought of this possibility.

Anzhi Tinglan moved her feet, and Guigu looked down and saw that her feet, which had been stuck, seemed to have loosened a little.

Before he could get a reply from An Zhitinglan, Ren Leshan spoke first, though not to them.

"You're really something. This whole instance is full of your people, right? From Anzhi Tinglan, whom I met at the beginning, to Hao Laoshi and Guiguzi later, they all pretended not to know you, but in reality, they all knew you. They all pretended to keep me in check until you came to find me."

When did Anzhi Tinglan become my subordinate?
Gu Mian, suspicious, glanced at An Zhitinglan.

Anzhi Tinglan knew that Ren Leshan had a deep misunderstanding about her relationship with Gu Mian, but she did not refute it. Instead, she gave a fake, kind smile when Gu Mian looked in her direction.

This expression is rarely seen on her face.

Moreover, when did Hao Laoshi acquire such great abilities that he was able to deceive the treacherous and cunning Ren Leshan?
Hao Laoshi was clearly also completely baffled, and scratched his head.

Woohoo! The wind and rain are so strong! Gugu has been blown away!
