So, should we choose the first floor or the second floor?
After a brief thought, Yu Xing lightly tapped Zhao Yijiu's arm and said, "Let's go downstairs."
Although they didn't know how long the activity would last, it would definitely be better to participate than to stay on the second floor.
Any uncertainty was a way for him to gain points.
Without wasting any more time, the two of them turned and ran towards the "Naihe Bridge". However, at this moment, an untimely guest pressed the bell.
"Ding Ling Ling"
The bells on their wrists also tugged at their skin, urging them to go to the guest's private room.
Zhao Yijiu didn't even bother and just coldly said, "It's annoying, isn't it intentional?"
"Maybe, although the manager told us not to let the guests press the bell again, we can only let them wait now." Yu Xing smiled, with a hint of mischief, "Anyway, the guest who rings the bell later to get revenge on the two disobedient waiters will also be stopped on the second floor."
Thirty seconds were enough for them to finish their thoughts and reach the stairs. The two of them went down from the cold Naihe Bridge and found that the ghosts who were originally sitting quietly in the Forgetfulness River Bar had all stood up and were excited.
"Green-Capturing Lord's activities are always so interesting!"
"What about those waiters? Why are they all gone?"
"Will Green-Capturing Lord participate in the activity?"
Listening carefully, the topics of the specters were divided into two categories, one related to "Green-Capturing" and the other related to them, the human waiters.
In addition, Yu Xing seemed to have seen Lu Shan and Sheng Wan's suspicious figures in the direction of the restroom.
It seemed that these two were closer to the stairs, so they came down faster than them.
The blood on the Naihe Bridge started to move, and Yu Xing had only reached halfway when Zhao Yijiu whispered, "Run faster."
"I'm so tired." Yu Xing felt like his lungs were about to explode.
Unfortunately, his physical strength had always been poor.
So Zhao Yijiu half-carried him and brought him down.
Almost at the same time, the blood formed a lock shape, firmly sealing the stairs, indicating that the second floor was currently closed.
Yu Xing had just stepped onto the first floor and hadn't thought about whether this Green-Capturing was really the legendary Green-Capturing Ghost when the broadcast sounded again, "The second floor is closed. Customers participating in the activity, please put on your masks!"
Masks?
After hearing the broadcast, the customers took off a grotesque and strange mask from their bodies one by one. Some were half crying and half laughing, some were glaring angrily, and some had a grim and toothy expression.
The location of the Naihe Bridge stairs was relatively secluded. Before the ghost customers noticed them, Yu Xing agilely turned back and hid in the corner behind the stairs with Zhao Yijiu.
Yu Xing had just run past, and with his poor physical condition, his face was pale and he was gasping for breath. He finally caught his breath and eagerly looked outside.
After putting on the masks, these ghosts covered their faces, and the ghostly aura hidden beneath their skin burst out.
Their modern attire, such as suits and skirts, were replaced by various colored long robes, but the bar's decoration remained the same. As a result, the specters seemed out of place in the bar, as if ancient specters had mistakenly entered the modern world.
The red-clothed malevolent ghost, the black-clothed shadow, the white-clothed specter, the gray-clothed desolate ghost... specters of different levels gathered in the same space, causing a terrifying surge of ghostly aura.
"Oh, is it divided according to this level? Then this Green-Capturing Bar might really be a Green-Capturing Ghost in a green robe." Yu Xing sighed, and Zhao Yijiu looked at him.

"Is the Green-Capturing Ghost powerful?"
"Don't you know?" Yu Xing was surprised. Didn't the Zhao Family educate Zhao Yijiu about these things?
Hearing the implication in Yu Xing's words, Zhao Yijiu said coldly, "I don't need to learn this at home."
"Oh." Yu Xing understood. He always felt that Zhao Yijiu was special in the Zhao Family. He chuckled, almost provoking Zhao Yijiu to beat him up, "Don't be angry, I'm not mocking you. Strictly speaking, the Green-Capturing Ghost is not considered a ghost in the system of specters in green, red, black, white, and gray. Among them, the Green-Capturing Ghost is particularly powerful, transcending the boundaries of humans and ghosts, having a physical form, and possessing strong abilities through absorbing the corpse's aura."
This was not the appropriate occasion, so Yu Xing briefly explained what a Green-Capturing Ghost was to Zhao Yijiu.
Many people say that those who die wearing red clothes will turn into malevolent ghosts full of resentment, seeking revenge on their enemies or even venting their anger on innocent people, so many people believe that red-clothed malevolent ghosts are the most ferocious.
In fact, the Green-Capturing Ghost is even more ruthless. According to legend, those who have deep hatred that cannot be avenged can lie in a coffin for forty-nine days without eating or drinking, and cultivate into a half-human, half-ghost being after death, known as the Green-Capturing Ghost.
The Green-Capturing Ghost's blood reverses in an instant due to the heavy resentment, and after forty-nine days, the blood in their whole body turns green. Therefore, they are also called the Green-Blooded Vengeful Ghost.
The Green-Capturing Ghost's body doesn't decay after death, and if they have the ability, they can even be reborn and become a monster corpse. In addition, with good cultivation, they can have abilities such as passing through walls and appearing in broad daylight.
Of course, this belongs to ancient legends. In modern times, let alone big cities, even rural areas have gradually abandoned earth burials, so it's not easy to find a coffin to lie in for forty-nine days.
"So, the Green-Capturing Ghost is stronger than the red-clothed malevolent ghost. If we encounter one, will we die?" Zhao Yijiu asked calmly.
If that was the case, then the Green-Capturing Ghost probably wouldn't appear in this deduction game, otherwise, there would be almost no way to survive, which didn't match the difficulty level before the division.
Then he heard Yu Xing say, "No, you will die, I won't."
Zhao Yijiu: ""Well, it's always this mix of truth and falsehood, making it hard to tell when he's telling the truth, when he's joking, and when he's pretending to be weak.
The voice of the refined scholar that Yu Xing imagined came from the broadcast again, most likely a scholar in blue robes: "The event officially begins. The theme of today's carnival party is to find the waiters hiding in every corner of the bar on the first floor! Find them, and feast on them! There are six waiters on the first floor this time, but one thing, they will resist, so be careful not to be counter-killed."
Upon hearing this command, the specters cheered and immediately scattered.
Zhao Yijiu pushed his glasses up, feeling that this event was too malicious towards the deductionists.
There were only three halls in total, at most three bathrooms, a changing room, no matter how well they hid, they couldn't last more than two minutes.
What he was more concerned about was the last sentence of the broadcast.
Counter-kill?
Fortunately, the system prompt appeared in time.
Deduction prompt: Materialize a personality mask, wear it on your face, and disguise yourself as one of the guests. The disguised specter's level will not exceed that of a malevolent ghost in red.
During the carnival party, the authority to kill ghosts is open.
A malevolent ghost in red is worth 5,000,000 underworld coins.
A shadow ghost is worth 200 points.
A ghost in white is worth 50 points.
A disheartened ghost is worth 100,000 underworld coins.
Killing a Green-Capturing Ghost rewards 50,000 points. If you don't mind dying, it's marked out for all deductionists to learn a lesson.
Underworld coins can be exchanged for items in the bar's vending machine!
Be careful, if the specters find you, the deductionists will inevitably be devoured by the excited specters.
