POTG chapter 3: Three Buddha Incense

(Warning of slight gore, read at your own risk, make sure you aren’t having your meal while reading this chapter ^^)

In the middle of the night, Gao Yan suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head to look in the direction of the door.

There were heavy footsteps lingering outside the door, as if something tall and heavy was dragging and pulling in the corridor, making a dull sound.

Gao Yan’s sleep had always been light, and as soon as there was a sound in the corridor, he immediately woke up.

Su Jiang and Yang Mian slept peacefully, one on the sofa and the other on the single bed. The former muttered ‘husband’, while the latter made a slight cry, apparently sleeping deeply. (T/N: I laughed so hard here)

Gao Yan: “…” Both of them are heavy-sleeper, very good.

At this moment, the door handle twisted slightly, and with a ‘click’, a slit opened. A pale and soft hand like a big white python stretched in through the crack of the door, the palm was open, there was a sarcoid* on the palm, and there was a slit in the middle of the sarcoid. The slit was slightly opened, and it was slowly cracking. When it cracked, it made the sound of eggshells cracking, and inside the slit was a black eyeball.

*Sarcoidosis is a disease characterized by the growth of tiny collections of inflammatory cells in any part of your body*

Sarcoid has a black and white eye. If it wasn’t for the wrong place, the appearance wouldn’t look too ugly, infact the eye is quite beautiful just by looking at it.

Gao Yan thought to himself, then sat up and stared at the hand. He was in a clever position, just where he could see the door, but that eye couldn’t see him.

The hand fumbled for a while at the door, paused for a moment, and then came towards him.

Gao Yan turned to look at Su Jiang and Yang Mian, who were still sleeping soundly. He dropped his feet to the ground and found a comb with a pointed handle in the grid of the bedside table. He held the comb part with the pointed handle facing out, and then lay back on the bed. Looking forward to the hand.

The hand was long and boneless, and it stretched from the door to the foot of the bed without the body. The sarcoid on the palm found Gao Yan on the bed, so it climbed up along the foot of the bed and held Gao Yan’s ankle.

It felt sticky to the touch, like a snake crawling over his ankle, Gao Yan frowned, and stood up abruptly, just about to clamp the arm in turn.

However, the red veil on the head of Guanyin with eight arms and severed palms at the foot of the bed was lifted, and the eyes in the palm of the strange hand immediately retracted at the speed of light when they saw the Guanyin image, the door was slammed shut, and there was a small sound from outside, a  thin scream of terror.

Gao Yan jumped out of the bed lightly, and came to the door quietly, looking out through the cat’s eyes.

Two seconds later, Gao Yan raised his hand and stabbed the sharp handle of the comb into the cat’s eye. It felt like he had hit something, and he could hear the sound of ‘puchi’ in his ears.

The next moment, there was another thin and frightening scream, and there was a commotion in the corridor.

When Gao Yan opened the door, he could only see a white shadow climbing down the stairs. He didn’t chase after it, but looked at the corners of the doors of the other five rooms in the corridor – all of them had a bowl of uncooked rice with three sticks stuck in the uncooked rice. Burning clean Buddha incense.

Immediately his face sank, his heart was slightly angry, he looked around the eight doors of the corridor, and finally stopped at the seventh door, where the corner was empty.

Gao Yan sighed silently, closed the door and lay back on the bed, closed his eyes, sorted out the situation in his mind and fell asleep.

The next day, everyone was awakened by screams.

Su Jiang rolled directly under the sofa, hugged his head and shouted, “Husband help! Throw away Brother Yan!” (T/N: LOL )

Yang Mian: “…” She looked at Gao Yan, who got up with a dark face, and was quite sympathetic: “Let’s break it up” Gao Yan said. ‘What a plastic friendship’*.

*plastic friendship means fake friendship, someone who only uses you for their own benefit.*

Gao Yan hadn’t slept well, his head hurt, and it was as if someone was trying to run a drill into his temple.

“Go out and have a look first.”

Yang Mian responded, and Su Jiang also reacted, getting up from under the sofa and rubbing against Gao Yan to show his loyalty. Gao Yan glanced at him, not wanting to bother with him at this moment.

The three stepped out of the room, and five players were surrounded by the door of Room 7 in the corridor. They all noticed that the three of them came out of Room 5 with different expressions, as if they were surprised that none of them died.

An elite man complained in a low voice: “Why didn’t they die?”

Yang Mian frowned, and Su Jiang immediately replied: “We are so good-looking, beautiful in appearance, and beautiful in spirit. You can’t bear it.”

“…” Really shameless.


[T/N: Su Jiang is such a mood (≧▽≦)]

The door of room No. 7 was opened, and the strong smell of blood came out. A lot of sticky blood flowed from the room to the door, and no one dared to enter. There were also two women in the team, already leaning against the wall, their faces turned pale.

The rest left the way, and the Gao Yan team walked in, just in time to see the corpse hanging upside down from the ceiling. That is the muscular man among the players. He was fine yesterday, and he intended to be the team leader.

Today he turned into a horrific corpse.

The muscular man was hung upside down from the ceiling, the blood all over his body was drained, and the entire room was almost soaked with blood. No one could have imagined that there could be so much blood on one person. His two arms were directly torn off, his expression was distorted, and the two eyes on his face were gouged out, leaving two scary black holes.

The three were silent, all expressionless. It seemed unexpectedly calm, even the most timid Su Jiang just had a pale face and didn’t vomit.

Zheng Weimin stood beside them and was about to leave.

Gao Yan asked him, “Didn’t you say that the primary copy of the new field will not kill?”     

Zheng Weimin replied coldly: “You will die if you don’t obey.”

Gao Yan: “tch, you sure are something”

Zheng Weimin’s eyes flickered: “You don’t need to stir up discord at this time, everyone is equal in the game, instead of fighting with oneself, it is better to think about how to ensure that you survive. In addition, what I say is a means of saving lives, if you don’t listen, you will die of course.” 

The other four players were a little swayed, but after hearing Zheng Weimin’s words, they suddenly remembered that last night, the muscular man died because he didn’t listen to Zheng Weimin’s advice and acted recklessly.

Recalling this, the four players immediately determined to follow Zheng Weimin and be obedient.

Gao Yan: “You took away the Buddhist incense of our room.” He leaned against the wall, put his hands in his pockets, lowered his eyes and said, “There are five or two raw rice in front of the door, and three Buddhist incense sticks are offered to ghosts and gods. 4, 5, 6 and 7, there are four rooms in total, there is no Buddhist incense offering, so ghosts and spirits are attacking.”

Everyone was speechless, quietly watching the handsome young man.

“The game is fair and everyone is equal. There are nine rooms in total, and there must be three Buddha incense sticks in each room. This is probably the preferential treatment of novice players in the novice field. However, the three of us could not find Buddha incense in the room. The door was also open when I came here, so the Buddha incense was taken. Yesterday, you came up first, and you were the leader of the line. The Buddha incense was there, right? Without the Buddha incense, the person in Room 7 died, and the next will be the same. It’s our turn.”

“Fuck!” Su Jiang rolled up his sleeves and rushed up again.

Gao Yan didn’t turn his head back: “Yang Mian, pull our calf.” (T/N: )

Yang Mian quickly pulled Su Jiang back: “Shu Jiang, we are civilized people, don’t move your fists and feet, and both of your arms and legs are fine, don’t rush forward and get beaten up, here are no local doctors, you won’t get any discount”

Su Jiang: “…”

Zheng Weimin suddenly smiled, nodding and admitting that Buddha incense was there: “There are 27 Buddha incense sticks in total, which can be used up to nine times. There are still 12 left.” He continued: “The game is fair, but there are no restrictions on the right to use the props, the place of use, and even if they are placed in the room, they do not belong to you.”

“I will teach you new people the truth, come first. The first thing to do is the ultimate ownership of the game items.”

The other four players were silent, and they also agreed with Zheng Weimin’s words, because the Buddha incense in Zheng Weimin’s hands was in their hands, and they didn’t want to die.

Gao Yan murmured, “12 sticks… Who will die tonight?”

12 sticks of Buddha incense can only be used four times, and there are five of them.

Hearing this, the players were in a little commotion.

Zheng Weimin was quite calm, turned his back and walked around and said, “We still have a whole day to find other life-saving props.” 

The four players followed behind Zheng Weimin to find other life-saving props, looking for clues by the way.

Su Jiang: “Brother Yan, will people really die if there is no Buddha incense in front of the door? We were fine yesterday.”

Gao Yan: “There was something last night, and it ran into the statue of Guanyin with the broken palm.”

Su Jiang: “…Let’s go and steal Zheng Weimin’s Buddhist incense back.” (T/N: I’m laughed to death omg)

Gao Yan stopped him and said that it was not so easy to find. After thinking about it, Su Jiang felt that he was right, so he suggested again: “Then let’s find life-saving props – oh yes, and the statue of Guanyin with severed palms, I have to go to worship it quickly.”

Yang Mian pursed her lips and said nothing. She looked at Gao Yan with a little bit of inquiry in her eyes.

Gao Yan: “Let’s go to the shrine later, the prop delivery person is here.” After a pause, he said to Su Jiang, “Go to the room and carry the Guanyin with the severed palm.” (T/N: not him regarding the landlord as delivery person, omg I’m dying)

Su Jiang obeyed the order and Yang Mian did not speak, stood by and waited to see Gao Yan’s plan.

At this time, the landlord rushed over with a mop and a trash can: “you are disobedient again, right? You made such a mess in your room after only one day of staying. Get out of here now, I won’t rent it anymore.” (T/N: lol here comes the land*prop delivery*lord)

He seemed addicted to acting as a landlord, but his eyes were bright with joy!

“Okay.” Gao Yan nodded: “Return the rent to us, and we will leave immediately.” 

The corners of the landlord’s raised mouth stiffened immediately: “Huh?” 

“I want to withdraw.”

The landlord: “…” Brother, you are interesting. (T/N: even though I don’t like the landlord but sometimes he seems cute to me lol lol)

After the landlord reacted, he showed a gloomy and greedy smile: “Guest, are you sure you want to withdraw?”

Gao Yan: “Not sure.” 

The landlord: “…” What about your previous words?

Gao Yan: “We are frightened and thought of leaving the hotel. It’s quite normal”.

Gao Yan: “Do you want to do business?”

The topic turned so fast that the landlord was stunned, and then he asked, “What business do you want to do?”

Su Jiang came over with Guanyin’s broken palm covered with a red cloth. Gao Yan lifted the red cloth and introduced it to the landlord. : “The precious lobular red sandalwood statue of Guanyin with eight arms and severed palms is carved, and it is ingenious. Although there are small flaws, the price is cheap. Three Buddha incense, one final word, two silver goods, what do you think?” – The landlord almost blurted out dirty, but fortunately, he temporarily stopped his impulse to stabilize his image. ‘This dude uses the things in his building to do business with him, but because of the rules, he really has to trade – at a loss! Losing business!’ (T/N: lmao Gao Yan is quite a businessman, so clever! (≧▽≦)

The landlord said with a dark face: “At most two… a handful of Buddha incense! Eighteen incense sticks can be taken out with your item, so you should be content!”

“So you can take out the incense sticks.” Gao Yan smiled more two points of gentleness: “Let’s make it all together, 20 pieces.”

The landlord glared at him angrily, and after a while he suddenly smiled awkwardly: “Okay, 20 pieces.” He agreed, as if afraid that Gao Yan would go back on his words, and quickly gave 20 pieces of Root Buddha incense, and then snatched away Guanyin with eight arms and severed palms.

The landlord touched Guanyin’s severed palm, his expression was very distressed, and then he remembered a dog compared to something, and his entire face was distorted in an instant. (T/N: hahah, scammed)

‘fooled me, fooled me!! A mere 20 Buddha incense in exchange for a mighty Guanyin statue? From where did this person learn business? Ah ah so shameless, so shameless’

He still had to clean the room, so he went into the room and grabbed the head of the corpse that was hanging upside down like a dead pig.

The room was cleaned up quickly, and it was completely impossible to see that there was someone who died extremely tragically just a moment ago.

Gao Yan handed the two Buddhist incense sticks to Yang Mian, who showed a surprised expression: “You trust me so much?”

“Didn’t we form a team?” Gao Yan asked back.

Yang Mian was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily: “Yes.” She took the two Buddhist incense sticks and put them in the backpack she was carrying. Then he settled down: “I have something to say.”

Gao Yan nodded, “Let’s find clues first.”

The three were about to go downstairs to find clues, but Su Jiang raised doubts as he walked: “Guanyin with eight arms and severed palms should be the righteous god to ward off evil spirits. Compared with using three sticks of Buddha incense at one time, Guanyin is more useful. Brother Yan, why did you change it to Buddha incense?”

Gao Yan: “Tomorrow you will know.” He didn’t say his plan.

Su Jiang didn’t ask anymore, he trusted Gao Yan very much. Not only because Gao Yan is very reliable, but also because Gao Yan has basically taken care of him for a year and a half.

Anyone who has been with Gao Yan for a while will most likely become a giant baby.

If he hadn’t gotten married early, Su Jiang might have fallen in love with Gao Yan. (T/N: this Su Jiang *facepalms* lol)

The three of them went downstairs. At the same time, a total of eight players in the building heard a mechanical and electronic message at the same time: [The main god-level player triggers a hidden story, and the novice primary field ‘Guanluoyin’ copy is upgraded to the advanced field… Hiss, rustling…]

As soon as the news came out, everyone’s expressions suddenly changed drastically. Then the electronic audio made a noisy sound like a bad signal, and after a while, it quieted down.

Two seconds later, it was re-announced: [The main god-level player uses rare props, the advanced field of ‘Guanluoyin’ is forcibly reduced to the primary field, the dungeon benefits are canceled, the three life-saving props are canceled, and the advanced rules protection is canceled. Players are asked to find the last pair of arms within five days, or the gods will not bless you. ]

[Rule: Please listen to the words of the gods. 】

The author has something to say:
