Chapter 374: Hidden Killer Move

"If one 'qian' can save Lao Qin..." Lin Qian decisively picked up "Shui Luo Le Wu Hen".

As long as they could resolve the accumulated water in Qin Dingdong's room, she would be hard to kill.

The current situation was complicated, with the combination of flooding and hail greatly increasing Qin Dingdong's risk of death.

The rushing water mixed with low temperatures could drain a person's body heat even faster than a "Han Liu." Besides, the room was being filled with foreign objects from two directions, doubling the speed at which it was filling up.

Now, they just needed to drain the water from Qin Dingdong's room, and the situation would improve dramatically.

After all, shattered ice was unlikely to cause suffocation, and even if it were to drown someone, it would take time for it to melt.

"Should it be like that?" Lin Qian held a 'qian' in each hand, knowing the game had entered its final stage, where every choice affected everyone's survival. She could only look up at Su Shan, then slowly raised "Shui Luo Le Wu Hen," as if waiting for Su Shan's opinion.

Su Shan looked at the 'qian' and stroked her chin with her hand, about to nod in agreement, but then hesitated.

A faint, almost imperceptible idea flashed through her mind.

"Wait..." She reached out to stop Lin Qian's action, then narrowed her eyes in thought.

The situation now... felt a bit odd.

Would Di Gou be that foolish?

This was already the last two rounds, no different from a final battle for him, meaning he was using his most ferocious "killing move."

But after setting the "disaster" in Qin Dingdong's room, he had clearly left an entire round for the remaining "Four Seasons" to react.

Under normal development, all the "rescues" would be sent one after another to "Winter."

Since the "Nian Shou" had triggered the "disaster" before Qin Dingdong made her "wish," even the "wish qian" in her own hand would have enough time to go full circle to save herself.

In other words, this round seemed like "Nian Shou" was unleashing all its killing moves, but it had left gaps everywhere.

It was another "besieged city must have a breach" tactic.

"This is just too abnormal..." Su Shan touched her nose with a finger. "Do you have some special plan?"

It looked like using "Shui Luo Le Wu Hen" could solve all the problems at hand, allowing Qin Dingdong to survive and letting everyone move smoothly into the final round.

At that point, they wouldn't need to worry about what the "disaster" was; they just had to quickly complete a full circle of "Si Hai Wu Xian Tian" to extinguish the "Nian Shou's" light and win the game.

"So, you want us to use this 'Shui Luo Le Wu Hen'?" Su Shan had a sense of déjà vu.

Last time, with Qi Xia, it was like this—subtly leading her into hell.

But Su Shan knew that this time, she was calmer than before.

From a broader perspective, why would Di Gou guide them to play "Shui Luo Le Wu Hen"?

Now, only one round remained, and Di Gou had only one "disaster qian" left in his hand.

No matter what was on that "disaster qian," it would be countered by "Bao Yu Gun Piao Po."

Currently, "Bao Yu Gun Piao Po" was in the hand of "Summer," the center of the year, capable of handling all kinds of situations throughout the year.

Even if the final round's disaster fell on "Spring" or "Summer," and even if they couldn't resolve it, as long as they moved fast enough, they could still complete "Si Hai Wu Xian Tian."

Wasn't this a guaranteed win...?

"Ah!"

Su Shan suddenly widened her eyes, feeling hot tears streaming out, blurring her vision. She quickly wiped them away, her eyes gleaming.

"I get it!"

She didn't have time to explain, hurriedly looking up and gesturing to Lin Qian.

She tried to use simple hand signals to tell Lin Qian not to play "Shui Luo Le Wu Hen," but instead to play "Chun Nuan Hua Kai Ri."

Lin Qian kept feeling like she was misunderstanding Su Shan's meaning. Several times, she held up "Shui Luo Le Wu Hen" in front of Su Shan, but each time Su Shan shook her head.

"What's going on...? Is it really okay?" Lin Qian muttered to herself in disbelief. "The priority is to stop the 'Bing Bao'... right?"

She simply turned the 'qian' over and showed the text on it to Su Shan. Su Shan examined it carefully, then shook her head again.

"Are you crazy...?" Lin Qian was at a loss, glancing at Qin Dingdong next door, where the mixture of water and shattered ice had already reached her waist.

Stopping the 'Bing Bao' now?! Wouldn't that mean Qin Dingdong would drown soon?

"This... this..." Lin Qian knew she wasn't stupid, but she couldn't guess what Su Shan was thinking at all. "Fine... I'll go with your call..."

As she inserted the 'qian' into the hole, everyone on site, including Di Gou, stared at Qin Dingdong's room.

Su Shan watched Di Gou's expression impassively, knowing she had probably guessed right.

This was an incredibly risky move.

The shattered ice on the roof stopped shaking after a moment, leaving only the steadily rising water level in the room.

Seeing this, Di Gou clearly frowned and turned to look at Su Shan.

"Not bad for you..." Di Gou's deep voice came through the broadcast. "This is just too unscientific. How did you figure it out?"

Su Shan couldn't answer Di Gou; she just slightly curled her lips.

Now, their chances of winning the game had finally improved.

Di Gou silently lowered his head and said, "The third person's 'wish' is over. Now, the fourth person, please 'draw qian'..."

His tone was no longer as calm as before. After all, he hadn't expected his carefully devised scheme to be seen through.

Qin Dingdong was baffled. She had thought her remaining teammates would remove her "flooding," but after all that, they had removed the "Bing Bao" instead.

Now, her room was a total mess, with her two "plain qian" floating on the water surface alongside the shattered ice, while the table had sunk to the bottom.

How was she supposed to "draw qian"?

Before she could figure it out, a 'qian' floated up from the table and quickly drifted to the surface.

"Are you messing with me...?" Qin Dingdong furrowed her brow. "My makeup is going to be ruined."

Qin Dingdong floated on the water, enduring the cold, took a deep breath, then dove underwater with the 'qian' in hand, steadily inserting it into the hole in the table.

"The eighth round... begins." Di Gou sighed deeply.

Seeing Di Gou's reaction, Su Shan finally felt a bit relieved. Based on all the circumstances, the last 'qian' in Di Gou's hand wasn't "Qian Han" at all.

While using "Bao Yu Gun Piao Po" to counter "Qian Han" made sense in principle, it wasn't a perfect match.

Since Di Gou had saved this 'qian' for the final round, it meant his last "disaster" was even stronger than "Qian Han"—powerful enough to kill someone in a very short time, but afraid of water.

For example—

"Shan Huo."
