Sheng Xingze put the chopsticks away, and there was a sudden sound of locking the door. Other than that, the surroundings were too quiet.
"Brother Camera?" Sheng Xingze called tentatively.
No one answered in the empty room.
A gust of wind blew past the back of Sheng Xingze's neck, and the cool touch made all the hairs on his neck stand up. He raised his right hand to protect the back of his neck, and turned back a little bit with his neck stiff.
It was pitch black behind him, and he couldn't see anything.
After his eyes got used to the dark environment, Sheng Xingze could barely see what was going on in the room.
The cameramen who were sitting across from him all disappeared, and he was the only one left in the room.
The originally bubbling hot pot fell silent, the red and white liquids were mixed together, and red oil was floating on the good bone broth.
There was red viscous liquid all around the hot pot, and some of it splashed in front of Sheng Xingze.
A pair of green eyes suddenly appeared on the wall, staring at Sheng Xingze without blinking.
Double double, triple double...
As if some mechanism had been activated, more and more eyes appeared on the wall, all looking at Sheng Xingze, and the surrounding walls were filled with a little bit of green.
Sheng Xingze felt that his intensive phobia had attacked. He wiped the goosebumps on his arms, and suddenly felt that some rooms were a bit cold.
The air conditioner in the room didn't know when it was turned off, so he grabbed Yu Bai's coat that was on the chair next to him and put it on his body.
Surrounded by the familiar atmosphere, the nauseating fear in Sheng Xingze's body subsided a little.
An extremely faint sound of breathing could be faintly heard in the room. Sheng Xingze held his breath. Although the sound of breathing was vague, it still existed.
There are others here.
Sheng Xingze stood up slowly propped up on the table, looking around keenly.
A bony hand quietly stretched out from under the table, and suddenly grabbed Sheng Xingze's ankle, with such force that it seemed as if it was about to sink directly into the flesh.
Sheng Xingze knew he couldn't dodge it, and he didn't dare to move as if he had been immobilized. He looked down at the hand that was holding him, and stood there waiting for the owner of the hand to crawl out from under the table.
"Don't move, my children are watching you." An old lady's hoarse voice came from below her, she slowly let go of Sheng Xingze's ankle, and slowly crawled out.
Sheng Xingze saw the still eyes on the wall start to blink one after another when the old lady was speaking, and could he still hear the crisp laughter of the children in the room.
The child the old lady mentioned is probably the owner of the eyes that are neither human nor ghostly.
The old lady in a black cloak struggled to get out. She leaned close to Sheng Xingze, stared at him with cloudy eyes, and pointed at the tip of Sheng Xingze's nose with her slender fingers.
"How many years, I haven't seen a living person for so many years." The corner of the old lady's mouth cracked an abnormal arc, revealing the empty tooth socket inside.
Sheng Xingze didn't answer.
The old lady hesitated for a while, then took out a Rubik's Cube from her body with trembling hands and put it in Sheng Xingze's hand.
"My son has been trapped inside for three hundred years. Today, you can only get out of here if you rescue my son."
Sheng Xingze looked at the ordinary Rubik's Cube in his hand, "How can I save him?"
"This is an ancient spirit weapon. Only by finding a way to restore it to its original state can my son come back."
"Was there a Rubik's Cube three hundred years ago?" Sheng Xingze directly revealed the true face of the so-called ancient spiritual weapon.
"This is an ancient artifact, not a Rubik's Cube!" The old lady suddenly became angry, and her thin and long nails had already touched Sheng Xingze's neck.
Sheng Xingze already knew that there would be no more unknown things coming out of this room, and the fear in his heart gradually dissipated.
He hid the Rubik's Cube behind him, and looked at the old lady with a pair of narrow eyes playfully: "But why should I save your son."
"Otherwise you will die!" The old lady held Sheng Xingze's neck, her canthus cracked, and blood began to flow from the corner of her eyes. The blood was not as thick as tears, and it stuck to the old lady's face and stopped.
The old lady's skin was very cold. It was the temperature of a dead person. The cold touch made Sheng Xingze's skin crawl, and he couldn't help shivering.
"If I release your son, you must tell me the clues to eliminate the undead."
"That's natural." The old lady looked very impatient, and leaned on a cane to sit on the stool and stared at Sheng Xingze's operation.
"Can you turn on the light, I can't see clearly this way." Sheng Xingze lowered his head and fiddled with the Rubik's Cube. The room was dim, and he could barely make out the color of the Rubik's Cube.
The old lady reached out to Sheng Xingze's neck again, "Turn on the light? Are you trying to kill my son?"
Sheng Xingze frowned slightly and carefully observed the colors of each side. When the old lady was impatiently hitting the floor with her cane, he began to deftly turn the Rubik's Cube, the bottom, top, and surroundings.
A Rubik's Cube was quickly solved by him, and he completed the six-sided blind twisting of the Rubik's Cube almost without looking at its color.
"Can you do it?" The old lady couldn't quite see the movements of Sheng Xingze's hands, and thought he was tossing and turning, so she urged: "My son can't wait so long."
Before she finished speaking, the door lock of the private room opened with a click.
Restoring the Rubik's Cube is the key to unlock the private room door.
The old lady narrowed her eyes and approached Sheng Xingze's hand, only to realize that the Rubik's Cube had been successfully restored by him, and she had no chance before she had prepared to question her. She ignored Sheng Xingze and took the Rubik's Cube resentfully.
"Son, you're finally saved." Holding the Rubik's Cube, the expression on her face was a little out of control due to excitement, and blood and tears began to flow down from the corners of her eyes. She seemed to have completely forgotten that there was another Sheng Xingze.
"Clue." Sheng Xingze saw that she still had a tendency to catch up with her son, so he quickly reached out and snatched the Rubik's Cube.
The old lady was caught off guard by his move, and said angrily: "I only know that the undead like rabbits, so they can be used as bait."
"What rabbit."
"Why do you ask so many questions? Don't you know how to try it yourself?" The old lady stopped talking after she finished speaking, and stopped talking no matter what Sheng Xingze asked again.
Sheng Xingze had no choice but to give up, and opened the door to let the outside light into the private room.
He heard the sound of chairs being moved suddenly in the private room, and several camera brothers all got out from under the table, and was a little surprised to see Sheng Xingze standing at the door and staring at them.
"The big brothers came out a little early, but I have already remembered you." Sheng Xingze looked at them with a bright smile on his face, "Don't be touched by me again, or you will die miserably."
Sheng Xingze was joking with the camera brother here, but at this moment a figure was hiding around the corner, looking in Sheng Xingze's direction and gnashing his teeth.
"Sheng Xingze, just wait for me."
Sheng Xingze turned around and keenly noticed Lin Mu's gaze. .
Sheng Xingze hadn't heard about Lin Mu since Huicheng was imprisoned, and he hadn't paid attention to this person again. It was really surprising to see Lin Musheng Xingze holding a hot pot here suddenly.
"Why are you here?" He was a little puzzled. Although Lin Mu hadn't been very popular, he didn't come to the point where he came to a hot pot restaurant to do odd jobs. "Are you also recording a variety show?"
Lin Mu sneered, and said in a strange way: "What? You think everyone is a big star like you, don't forget, it's not because of you that I am like this now."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the program crew all stood beside Sheng Xingze to protect him behind him. Although they didn't know about the original entanglements between Sheng Xingze and Lin Mu, just based on Lin Mu's words, the Huduzi program team couldn't bear it.
Sheng Xingze couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He thanked the big cameraman standing in front of him, and walked straight to Lin Mu. Can you fight back.
"At the beginning, I promised you to explain the matter of Huicheng, and I would not pursue what you did before. Naturally, I will do what I said."
"If you really do what you say, then why is my role replaced by someone?" Lin Mu's voice was full of fragility, tears in his eyes immediately said: "Xingze, I have never been sad because you replaced me Lost my role, I'm sad that you lied to me, no one has ever had a problem with me except you."
"Lin Mu, you don't need to act like this now, or do you think Hui Siyong's parents will easily let you go after you did that to him?" Sheng Xingze looked at him with his arms crossed.
"Hui Siyong's parents?" Lin Mu's face showed a look of horror, and the hand holding the hot pot began to tremble uncontrollably, "Hui Cheng told me that he is just a newcomer."
"Go and find out who Hui Hongsheng is."
Lin Mu's face turned even paler. Of course he knew who Hui Hongsheng was, so Hui Siyong's identity was also very clear.
After Sheng Xingze finished speaking, he planned to walk away from Lin Mu.
Lin Mu threw the hot pot on Sheng Xingze as if he was crazy.
Surrounded by onlookers and program crews, Sheng Xingze had no way to dodge, so he had time to cover his face with his elbow. The iron pot hit Sheng Xingze's elbow, and his whole body was soaked in the soup.
The staff of the nearby program group were also affected by Lin Mu's attack, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while.
In order to save diners' waiting time, Lizi Hot Pot Restaurant has always boiled the hot pot for diners before serving it.
Although it was delayed for a while, the temperature of the bottom of the pot of soup in Lin Mu's hand could not reach the level of boiling, but the remaining temperature could still feel a burning sensation when poured on his body.
"You clearly know Hui Siyong's identity, why didn't you tell me? If I knew before..."
Finally, when Sheng Xingze heard Lin Mu panting and questioning, he raised his head and smiled at Lin Mu.
"Why should I tell you?"
