The black shadow ghost came out of the housekeeper's room, which had been terrified and lost consciousness, and came to the corridor.
Thinking of the butler's terrified appearance before, the black shadow ghost felt that he had gone too far, did he look so scary? Just as he was racking his brains to think about how to hold that degree, when he floated to the corner, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

It was already a ghost, of course he was fearless, turned his head, and immediately noticed something strange.
That's the mirror at the end of the hallway.
Unexpectedly, his appearance was reflected in the mirror.
"This is… "
…
Between Gu Wuji's half-sleep and half-awake, he felt like he was in a noisy space.
The sound of footsteps kept ringing around him, as if there were a group of people walking around him.
Countless eyes fell on him, making people very uncomfortable.
Gu Wuji opened his eyes subconsciously, and all he saw was a pair of eyes staring at him with their heads lowered. Those eyes were full of daze, and they probably didn't even know what they were.
But among all the sights, only one person's sight was filled with resentment.
That person is-
…
He woke up.
Gu Wuji sat up, picked up the phone next to him, and the time displayed was seven o'clock in the morning.
Thinking of the weird dream last night, he couldn't help frowning. Like the previous copy, the dream he had must be related to this copy, but for the time being he couldn't think of anything from it.
When looking at the room, Gu Wuji suddenly paused.
There's something wrong with this room.
No, not just the room, this whole space is not right.
…
Cheng Jia stayed on the sofa all night, and when he was sore all over, he saw Gu Wuji sitting beside him, looking at him with a serious expression, he suddenly gasped, and his body suddenly sat up straight, "Why? , What's wrong? Master Gu?"
Gu Wuji stretched out his hand to squeeze Cheng Jia's chin and looked at it carefully.
At such a close distance, Cheng Jia didn't even dare to breathe. Of course he didn't dare to think anything wrong about Master Gu, but it was indeed very nervous to be looked at by idols like this! Coupled with the identity of Master Gu and this solemn expression, Cheng Jia was worried about whether he was going to die.
In the end, Gu Wuji let go of his hand and said in a relaxed tone, "Well, you are Cheng Jia."
"Master Gu, what do you mean by this?" Cheng Jia was in a bad mood, "Am I still not me?"
"That's not necessarily true. Look, this room is different from before." Gu Wuji said.
"It seems a little weird?" Cheng Jia looked around, but this wasn't his room at all. He was so tired yesterday that he couldn't see where the problem was for a long time. Weird.
"All the facilities in the room are reversed, which is completely different from yesterday." Gu Wuji pondered, and opened the curtain on the side wall, and suddenly a tall mirror appeared in front of them, almost reflecting the room. The whole picture, "It's as if... we've all entered the world of mirrors."
If it wasn't for Cheng Jia who mentioned the discomfort of mirrors to him before, and also emphasized mirrors in the system's words, he would never have thought of this.
[Yes, at this time. You finally noticed that here is the world inside the mirror. ]
[Main quest update: Investigate the relationship between the world in the mirror and the outside world, and find out the truth of the Cheng family. ]
Hearing the system's words, Gu Wuji was sure that his guess was indeed correct.
"What, what?" Cheng Jia suddenly noticed that everything in the room was indeed reversed from before, and his face turned pale with fright, "Then what should we do?"
"Don't worry, there must be a way to go back." Gu Wuji reached out and touched the mirror in front of him, feeling an extremely strong Yin Qi, but he couldn't pass through.
I don't know how they got into this mirror world yesterday.
Gu Wuji turned around and opened the curtains on the side, looking out from the floor-to-ceiling windows, there was a lot of gray fog outside the villa, completely surrounding this area, the sunlight could hardly penetrate, and it was full of dullness.
The garden, which originally looked exquisite and beautiful, was completely different from before. It was very dilapidated, as if no one had pruned it at all, and the shadows in the trees felt like something was hiding.
There's nothing wrong with going straight to a horror movie with this scene.
"It seems that the previous plan could not be completed. Now, even if you want to leave, you can't do without it. There is no mobile phone signal, so you can't communicate with the outside world." Gu Wuji said this, and he didn't feel strange. But the copy of the system, how can the people in it escape so easily, but I don't know who are the people involved in this strange space...
After all, there might still be some kind of 'person' in the mirror.
Cheng Jia was extremely uneasy, but after all, he had experience hitting ghosts many times, and he was not as frightened as before. He was still thinking about the current situation, and he suddenly realized something, "Master Gu, that black shadow. Is the ghost still there?"
Gu Wuji shook his head, "It didn't come back."
"No." Cheng Jia said with a bitter face, "Could it be that it also messed with the fools in this villa? Will it come together to deal with us?"
"It's not enough." Gu Wuji said: "We are the one who is more familiar with him. How can we help the stranger we just met. I think it may be trapped somewhere."
"It's obviously a ghost, so it can happen?" Cheng Jia was very surprised.
"That's not necessarily true. After all, ghosts and ghosts are different." Gu Wuji murmured, seeming to remember the things in the previous copy, and then looked at Cheng Jia, "Okay, let's go outside first. See how the others are doing, you can rest here if you don't want to, but I don't know if there will be any accidents."
Cheng Jia really didn't want to go out, but he knew that he would probably die faster if he stayed, so he immediately followed Gu Wuji, since it must be safe beside Master Gu!
The corridor is obviously upside down, even if you don't notice it in the room, even the dullest person can realize that something is wrong.
At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded.
"It's Huihui." Cheng Jia's heart skipped a beat.
The two immediately ran towards the place where the sound came from, and not long after they saw Fang Huihui sitting on the ground with a terrified face, a maid stood not far away, and they couldn't see each other's face from their perspective. .
Seeing someone coming over, Fang Huihui ran over quickly. She wanted to grab her cousin's hand to complain, but found that Cheng Jia ran behind Gu Wuji before her, and cautiously came out from behind like a rabbit. .
Fang Huihui: "…"
Cheng Jia's original tall image collapsed in a girl's heart.
"Are you okay?" Gu Wuji finally asked Fang Huihui, his tone was as gentle as a spring breeze, afraid that if he was not careful, he would scare the other party, "What's wrong?"
This is normal development! Fang Huihui seemed to have just reacted at this time, and the tears of fear suddenly fell, and she suddenly felt that Gu Wuji was extremely reliable, "Then, that maid, she, she is not human!"
Only then did the two of them see clearly that the maid standing over there was as pale as a dead person, and her pupils were not naturally dilated. She glanced at them expressionlessly, and continued to lower her head to clean the ground.
But the strange thing is that the broom in her hand is extremely broken, which makes the cleaning picture even more strange.
Fang Huihui was so frightened when she suddenly saw the maid when she came out.
"Are you familiar with this maid's face?" Gu Wuji asked.
"Of course I'm not familiar with her!" Fang Huihui said in a flustered tone, "I've never seen her before, what's going on, now..."
Cheng Jia grimaced, thinking that everyone should be together. Fortunately, the others didn't come back. At the same time, he comforted and said, "Huihui, when everyone else is ready, I'll explain to you later."
Gu Wuji is thinking over there. Since they are unfamiliar, it means that the ghost here is not a projection of someone in reality, but is already in this world
Moreover, it seems that the other party does not seem to mean to harm people, but seems to have been performing some kind of duty. Is this the bondage of ghosts in this world
Gu Wuji thought about it and walked over slowly.
Cheng Jia and Fang Huihui were so frightened that they watched Gu Wuji's back nervously. At this point, they could see traces of relatives.
"Hello?" Gu Wuji said hello tentatively, and at the same time carefully observed the other party. From such a distance, he could clearly see that the other party's clothes were very worn out, and the style was not like the servants he saw yesterday. of.
The maid had no intention of replying to him at all, she was just cleaning, but she couldn't clean with this broom no matter what.
Gu Wuji was thoughtful, knowing that it was impossible for the other party to pay attention to him, so he turned around and returned to Cheng Jia and the others, "Cheng Jia, do you know what strange things happened in this house before? Years, or ten years ago, what happened to the servant here?"
Judging from what I just saw, this weird mirror world is most likely caused by the previous owner of the house, or some previous generation of the Cheng family. At this time, of course, I came to ask Cheng Jia.
"Master Gu, this, I don't know." Cheng Jia looked depressed, feeling that he was clearly a member of the Cheng family, but he was of no use, which disappointed Master Gu too much, "I never cared about this. It's a matter of fact, but this is our Cheng family's ancestral home, and I shouldn't have dealt with anyone else..."
"So that's the case." Gu Wuji nodded, it would only be someone related to the Cheng family, so maybe it would be easier to find.
Just then, there was a loud noise from below.
"It seems that the others have already arrived downstairs. Let's go down quickly."
The three immediately rushed downstairs, and along the way, they found a lot of mirrors all around. In this mirror world, there are far more mirrors than in reality.
When several people walked through the corridor full of mirrors, a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed it in Fang Huihui's direction.
Fang Huihui almost subconsciously avoided her, but she was about to fall towards the stairs in a staggering manner. Gu Wuji grabbed her and prevented the tragedy from happening.
Perhaps because the villa was built relatively early, the stairs are very steep, and the world in this mirror has become even more terrifying. If you fall directly, you will be seriously injured even if you don't die.
"Gu, Master Gu? Thank you so much!" Fang Huihui covered her chest in shock, she was moved to tears when she looked at Gu Wuji, and now she almost felt that Gu Wuji was an angel who came down to help her.
"It's okay, be careful next time." Gu Wuji reminded casually.
"Fuck, it's terrible." Cheng Jia didn't dare to get close to the mirror anymore.
When Gu Wuji came to the hall, the housekeeper and the third master and his wife were already waiting there. The three of them were not very good, and they were obviously frightened.
Of course, they discovered the strange situation of the villa as soon as they woke up. Fortunately, although the servants they encountered were strange, they would not do anything to them, so they came to the hall safely.
As for the weird fog and weeds growing indiscriminately outside, it is frightening to look at, and dare to go out casually.
"What the hell is going on?" The third master's face was extremely ugly, but there was a trace of panic in his eyes, as if something had exceeded his expectations, "How did this happen here?"
The housekeeper had to comfort them, but in fact, even he himself encountered a ghost last night, and he couldn't find any powerful words to comfort them. He could only sigh in his heart. Is it something...
Seeing Gu Wuji and others, the butler immediately stepped forward nervously to check whether Cheng Jia was injured.
"Everyone." Gu Wuji opened his mouth to the crowd and directly told the current situation, "You should have also discovered that this place is haunted. If I'm not mistaken, we are trapped in the world of mirrors. ."
"Stop joking!" The third master was so excited that he grabbed Gu Wuji's collar when he came up, "It must be something you did! Say, what do you want—"
The tall and strong third uncle and the relatively slender Gu Wuji, everyone has to sweat for Gu Wuji. Fang Huihui's face changed even more, and her heart lifted, for fear that the beautiful young man in front of her would be hurt by the third master.
But the next moment, accompanied by a roar, the sturdy third master was directly put on the ground, and Gu Wuji himself stood aside as if nothing had happened.
The third master looked at Gu Wuji in astonishment. Just now, he didn't even have the strength to resist, and he couldn't believe that this was the strength that the person in front of him could have.
"If you talk well, I can explain it well." Gu Wuji said slowly, and glanced at the few people in front of him, although there was no threat in his tone, but it was not much worse, "But if I do it, I will not. polite."
Now it seems that this reality dungeon is no different from the ordinary dungeon. The only thing that becomes troublesome is that the teammates do not cooperate at all.
The originally different attitudes of everyone suddenly changed. After all, the current situation is not right. The force value of this reckless force is astonishing to the naked eye. If something really happens, it may be impossible to fight. It is better to have a better attitude first.
The third uncle was supported by his wife, and he didn't dare to say anything, because he was afraid of this and didn't care.
The housekeeper even remembered what Cheng Jia had said before, and looked at Gu Wuji no longer as disdainful as before. Could it be that this third-rate little star really has the ability to deal with ghosts? If he can really fix what's going on here...
As if he noticed what the butler was thinking, Gu Wuji had already turned his head, looked at the butler steadily, and asked, "Butler, how long have you been in this house?"
The butler's originally subtle expression suddenly brought pride, obviously working in the Cheng family made him very proud, "It has been decades, and I have been serving the Cheng family since I was young. Big, no one knows the Cheng family better than me."
"That's great." Gu Wuji's tone was filled with joy, feeling that he saved a lot of trouble, "Then I want to ask you, has anything strange happened to this house before? It's related to those mirrors here. ."
Hearing this, the faces of the housekeeper and the third uncle and his wife changed, and the housekeeper insisted: "Of course nothing happened, these mirrors are just ordinary decorations."
"Housekeeper, what's going on now is related to our life and death. Obviously, there is something wrong with the mirror." Gu Wuji said, "I hope you don't hide anything, otherwise, everyone will never be able to leave here."
Although everyone was prejudiced against Gu Wuji at first, thinking that he was just a friend brought by Cheng Jia, but at such a dangerous moment, Gu Wuji was so calm, there was no doubt that other people would be caught A shot of a booster gave him a little more trust.
The housekeeper opened his mouth and looked at the young master Cheng Jia next to him. Then he made up his mind and said everything.
After all, even if it is the secret of the Cheng family, if you don't tell this outsider now, maybe they will all die in this weird place, and the others will be fine. Young Master Cheng Jia will never have an accident.
It turns out that something happened to the Cheng family more than 20 years ago. At that time, Cheng Jia's grandfather, the head of the family at the time, had a younger brother who was too young, only in his twenties, even younger than Cheng Jia's father and uncle.
And that little uncle, perhaps because he was an old man, was very sick and had to stay at home all the time to recuperate. His personality was also uncertain, and he often behaved incomprehensible to others.
However, it is said that he is very handsome and talented in some aspects. If it weren't for his poor health, he should still have some fame.
One day after that, without any warning, he suddenly cut his wrists and committed suicide in his room. When he was found, he was out of breath. It is said that the scene was very strange, and those who found the bodies were frightened to a certain extent, and several people later committed suicide.
This incident was just the beginning. After that, strange things happened in the Cheng family from time to time. People often saw some strange shadows in the middle of the night. They were so frightened that they had mental problems. The little uncle turned into a ghost and returned. Many servants have begun to resign, after all, money is not as important as life.
This incident even affected the career of the Cheng family. At that time, the owner of the house asked an expert for advice, and finally set up these mirrors all over the house, and the expert also said that these mirrors must not be touched. So that the ghost of that little uncle can rest in peace.
After that everything seemed to calm down. The Cheng family also suppressed the news. After all, it was such a strange thing, and they didn’t want it to continue to spread. As a result, up to now, the second generation of silly, sweet and rich like Cheng Jia has nothing to do with their own family. known.
"Looking at the current situation, could it be that person..." The butler's face became very complicated.
It is also because of this experience that the housekeeper was scared by the shadow ghost yesterday and immediately lost consciousness. After all, it caused a shadow in his heart.
The housekeeper himself has experienced a lot of things, so he feels that careless looks unreliable and does not have the temperament of an expert, but now he has no choice.
The faces of the third uncle and his wife were already pale, but they tried to reduce their sense of existence, and they had no intention of speaking at all, which of course attracted Gu Wuji's attention.
Cheng Jia was shocked for a while. He didn't expect such a thing to happen at home! He began to feel that it was not easy for him to grow up safely all these years ago.
"Housekeeper, are you sure that the death of that little uncle has nothing to do with the Cheng family?" Gu Wuji said, in this situation, it's hard for him not to think of the boss he encountered in the first instance.
"Of course not!" the housekeeper said indignantly: "I swear with my life that the Cheng family will not do such a thing. The death of the young master at that time was also a blow to the Cheng family. so."
Gu Wuji didn't look like he was lying when he saw that the housekeeper was so excited. He felt that the truth might not be the case. Besides, one stalk is not used twice!
"Then what should we do now, and how can we leave? What does the young master of the Cheng family want to do?" Fang Huihui said in fear, "Even if those ghosts don't come to harm us, who knows if the food here is eaten. How... if you want to stay in this place forever, you might as well just die."
"I have to ask the housekeeper." Gu Wuji looked at the housekeeper again, "The master should have said something else back then, do you still have an impression?"
"This." The butler's face became solemn, and he thought about it seriously, "I did say it. That person said that if something happens later, these mirrors must not be smashed, otherwise even more terrible things will happen, and, and... It's been so long, I don't know."
"Housekeeper, now is not the time to remember!" Cheng Jia said quickly, he was already too frightened, if this matter is over, the first thing he will do is to move out immediately.
"I remembered that the expert once wrote some precautions and put them in the study! Because there has been no accident since then, everyone thought it was completely fine, so no one looked at it." The housekeeper said quickly.
Everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, at least now they know how to get out of this ghost place.
Just when they wanted to get up and go upstairs, with a creaking sound, the door on the side was suddenly pushed open, and everyone suddenly became nervous.
The one who came in was an extremely stiff servant, followed by other servants. They all held plates in their hands, and put the dishes in the tableware on the table expressionlessly.
It just so happened that everyone had a plate in front of them.
"Everyone, please have a meal." The lead servant's body was so stiff that the hearts of those who saw it felt numb.
Several people were actually a little hungry. Although the situation was extremely strange, they still sat down and tentatively opened the plate in front of them.
After seeing the scene on the plate, everyone suddenly took a breath. These dishes looked completely rotten, and there were strange bugs crawling on them, which formed a sharp contrast with the exquisite tableware. Go down and probably die.
"This... please take it down." Fang Huihui bit her head and said.
The servant turned his head coldly, and there seemed to be a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "These foods must be eaten, otherwise you can't leave here."
"Are you asking us to eat and we will eat?" The third master was angry. Although these people are very strange, they should not do anything like the other servants in this room. Confused, and now I'm bullying the soft and fearing the hard and getting angry at these servants, "I don't even care what my identity is. Since I'm a servant, I should listen to the master!"
"Third Master, calm down!" The housekeeper said quickly, "The master once said that you can't disturb those souls..."
The voice just fell, and the faces of the servants in front of him became more and more hideous, and even the body changed. Compared with the slightly weird image just now, it is now like a monster.
Several monsters are getting closer and closer to the third uncle. The third uncle realized that something was wrong. He subconsciously took a few steps back, his legs were weak, and he subconsciously asked for help: "Help, help..."
"Wait." Gu Wuji's voice suddenly sounded.
The movements of several servants stopped, turned their heads and looked at Gu Wuji with a creepy expression.
Fang Huihui and the others didn't dare to breathe. The monster in front of them seemed to be crawling out of a horror movie. Just looking at them made them feel mentally polluted, let alone talking to each other.
Only Cheng Jia looked at Gu Wuji with excited eyes. He was the kind of fanatical fanboy who was confident in Gu Wuji at all times, "Master Gu must be fine!"
The housekeeper next to him was full of pessimism and sighed in his heart. He just hoped that Master Cheng Jia wouldn't be too sad if something happened to him.
"You got up so early to be busy, and you've all worked hard." Gu Wuji said as he walked forward, patted the shoulder of the servant in front of him, and said with concern, "We're not hungry yet, why don't you eat first? something."
He feels that the ghosts in this world are really not easy. They have become ghosts and are still so social animals. He really has professional spirit, which makes him appreciate it very much. These foods should be delicacies for them.
The headed servant stared at Gu Wuji with a scrutiny, as if he didn't understand what his purpose was.
Everyone else thinks Gu Wuji is crazy. What is he doing now, calling ghosts to eat? Why is the attitude like greeting ordinary colleagues for dinner, will these ghosts listen to him
Gu Wuji was looked at by the other party like this, suddenly thought of something, and his face changed.
When others thought that he was afraid after realizing it, Gu Wuji turned his head and picked up the plate, and then walked to the servant who had turned into a monster, as if he didn't see the other party's fear at all. look like.
"After all, your body is not very convenient, and you can't eat by yourself, so let me help, is it okay?"
The servant slowly changed back to a human form, staring at Gu Wuji, and Gu Wuji also stared at him, his eyes were full of enthusiasm, it was simply irresistible.
Maid: "..."
