The bright sunshine suddenly disappeared and the sky became gloomy.
The originally brightly lit corridor suddenly became dim, as if night had fallen.
The players felt a chill down their spines and subconsciously tightened their grip on their phones, but when they saw other players were there, they slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
What is coming will eventually come. There is no point in being afraid. You can only be more vigilant and work hard to get through this.
Tan Lan looked at the message on her phone, "Haunted house maze... Does that mean that Xiaoqiao Inn has now become a haunted house that looks like a maze?"
Tong Shen sighed, "Yesterday it was a haunted cave, today it's a haunted house maze, they both feel pretty much the same."
The players who stayed in the Xiaoqiao Inn and experienced the ghost cave yesterday nodded, all their nerves tense.
Someone secretly swallowed and asked: "What should we do now?"
"Of course, we should find a way to crack it first." Chai Yingying said, "If we can't find it, we can use the psychic cards... By the way, how many psychic cards do you have?"
The players present looked at each other.
"Yes, there are three more."
"I have one."
"I have two."
"I don't have any more."
"… "
Gu Jiu said: "I still have four."
Everyone looked at Gu Jiu with envy and discovered that she had the most psychic cards. Most people had either one, two, or even none.
Judging from their experiences in the past few days since entering the game world, there are at least two or three death notices every day. They don't know when they will receive the text message, and they can't always successfully leave the death notice time. The psychic card is the last trump card to escape the death ending.
Moreover, props are bound to players. Even if you know that others have so many props, you can't snatch them away.
Chai Yingying concluded: "So we should try our best to decipher the death notice by ourselves."
She still had three psychic cards in her hand, but they were still not enough, so she tried to save as much as possible.
While everyone was talking, a series of banging sounds came from the end of the quiet corridor, as if someone was playing with a ball in the corridor.
Everyone looked towards the corridor and listened to the bang bang bang sounds gradually approaching. It was as if the sounds were hitting their hearts and their hearts couldn't help but beat along with the sound.
Under the gaze of the players, a small figure walked out from the turning point.
He was a little boy of three or four years old, with a pale and stiff face and a pair of dark eyes staring straight at him.
He was holding a ball in his arms. Due to the light, the players couldn't see clearly what the ball looked like. They only felt that the black ball facing them looked like human hair.
The boy asked, "Do you want to play ball?"
All the players shook their heads decisively. Who wants to play ball with a ghost and wait for him to twist off their head and use it as a ball
"Can I use your heads as balls?"
Player: “…” He shook his head decisively again.
Seeing that they all refused, the little boy showed a weird smile on his face and threw the ball in his hand over.
The ball bounced from mid-air to the ground, bouncing like a rubber ball, bouncing all the way over.
The players finally saw clearly that the ball was a head, and the black thing was indeed human hair. It jumped towards the players, and the expression on its face was exactly the same as the little boy, with a weird smile.
When it was about to get close, the head suddenly jumped high, opened its mouth and bit towards the player. In its mouth were a mouthful of extremely sharp ghost teeth protruding from its lips.
Chai Yingying jumped up and swung her sword towards the head.
The head hit the wall and bounced back towards another player.
The head jumps around in the corridor, chasing the player and biting him. The player doesn't dare to let it bite him, so he can only try to hide from it, or use weapons to knock it away like Chai Yingying did.
In fact, what they wanted most was to blow up this head, but they found that it was impossible to do so.
The little boy stood in the distance, clapping his hands and laughing happily, saying, "Come and play ball~~"
Every time he opened his mouth, the power of the head would surge. After experiencing this several times, the players realized that this boy could increase the power of his head.
"This brat is so bad." Chai Yingying scolded, "Miss, get him!"
She remembered that in the copy of the Reincarnation School, the eldest lady beat the ghost who invited them to play ball so hard that his mouth was crooked and his eyes were squinting. Then she looked at the ghost playing ball this time. It was obviously the same with a head, but the one controlling the ball was a little ghost, who was much more powerful than the headless ghost.
Gu Jiu said: "Okay, you guys block the ball, I'll go over."
The players were cheered up and used all their means to block the head, allowing Gu Jiu to pass.
With the cooperation of the players, Gu Jiu quickly came to the little boy.
The little boy showed a bit of timidity on his face, and when he was about to call his head back, Gu Jiu picked him up like a chick. He opened his mouth to bite her, but two of his fangs were knocked out by the eldest lady's punch.
“Woo woo woo…”
The little boy started crying, crying so sadly that his face was covered with blood and tears.
Because the little boy was controlled by Gu Jiu, the lethality of the head was greatly reduced and it was quickly controlled by the player and stepped on hard. No matter how it rolled, it could not escape.
Seeing the little boy crying with blood all over his face, the players had no sympathy at all. If they had sympathized with him, they would be the ones to die.
Gu Jiu said gently, "Little brother, playing with a ball is very dangerous. Don't come to play with your brothers and sisters, okay?"
The little boy nodded and cried.
Gu Jiu waved at the player and said, "Give the ball back to him."
Although the players were a little hesitant, they also knew that the little ghost was just a member of the haunted house maze and killing him would be of little use, so they let go of the head.
The head rolled towards the little boy.
When it was about to arrive, it suddenly jumped up and opened its mouth to bite Gu Jiu.
"Be careful!" everyone exclaimed.
Gu Jiu kicked the head and flattened it, and the ghost teeth in his mouth fell out one by one.
When the little boy saw this scene, he burst into tears again. The sound of ghosts howling made the players want to cover their ears. It was really harsh.
Gu Jiu said gently: "If you cry again, I will knock out your teeth."
The crying stopped instantly, and the little boy looked at her with sobs, deep fear in his eyes.
After Gu Jiu let him go, the little boy picked up his unevenly flattened head on the ground and ran away quickly.
The first ghost is solved.
Gu Jiu said: "Okay, let's go to the haunted house maze. The maze is also very interesting."
Everyone: “…” You are so capable, so we’ll listen to you.
When they obediently followed Gu Jiu to explore the haunted house maze, they were all a little confused. It seemed that they had listened to her arrangements unconsciously and followed her obediently.
Chai Yingying said with great understanding: "It's definitely right to follow the eldest lady. There's no need to be confused. We can win by following her."
Jiang nodded in agreement.
Everyone: “…” That’s fine too.
The layout of the Bridge Inn didn't change after it became a haunted house, but it seemed like there were a few more corridors, or a few more rooms, and if you didn't pay attention, you couldn't even tell which way was which.
"It's obviously the right direction..."
The direction is indeed correct, but it is just going in circles.
Not only would they go around in circles, they would also encounter ghosts. If they were not careful, a ghost would suddenly appear and rush towards them.
If it was yesterday's ghost cave, when the players encountered ghosts, they were chased by the ghosts and made their lives worse than death, and even one player died, which made Tan Lan and others have some psychological trauma. But when they encountered ghosts today, it was the eldest lady who chased them and made their lives worse than death, which made the players feel very happy.
Miss Gu Jiu is worth ten players at once.
Boom boom boom!
The players were trying to find their way on the first floor when a door made a bang, as if someone was knocking on it, or something was hitting the wall.
Jiang Ze and Tong Shen were close to each other. They looked at each other and kicked the door open.
After the door opened, there was smoke and fire inside, as if there was a fire. There was a faint glow of fire and a shrill sound was heard, as if someone was burning to death inside.
The fire spread out of the room and the temperature in the air was rising.
Seeing this scene, the player's scalp went numb and he subconsciously wanted to run upstairs and get away from here.
The haunted house is closed and there is no escape door on the first floor, so you can only escape upstairs.
"Miss, Lu Ji, let's go!" Seeing Gu Jiu and Lu Ji still standing there, Chai Yingying said anxiously.
Gu Jiu said: "We can't leave. The fire here will burn down the entire haunted house, and we can't escape."
This is the death notice time. Once the haunted house turns into a sea of fire, all the players in the haunted house will be burned to death, so the only thing to do is to extinguish the fire.
Tan Lan asked anxiously: "What should we do? Should we put out the fire? How?"
"I wonder if the fire extinguisher will work?"
"There's a well in the yard. Do you want to get some water?"
"I'm afraid a ghost will be hung from the well."
"… "
The players were anxiously trying to find a solution, and someone even took out a fire extinguisher and sprayed it at the spreading fire, but of course it was useless, and the fire showed no signs of being put out.
This fire was very strange. It didn't need anything to help it burn. Even the concrete floor could be burned.
Gu Jiu took out the magic clock and adjusted the magic time.
The magic clock can be used at: 04:37.
Everything in the entire space became still, and the only ones who were not affected were the players.
When the players saw the magic clock in Gu Jiu's hand, they were surprised. This kind of prop that controls time is very rare and expensive. They didn't expect that she actually had it.
Gu Jiu didn't say anything more. After a while, she walked towards the room with fire.
03:23.
Nearly a minute later, she came out and put away the magic clock.
The flames had been extinguished, but there were still traces of the burning on the ground. The players looked into the burning room, which was dark and empty.
"Miss, why is this room on fire?" Chai Yingying asked.
Gu Jiu said casually: "There is a ghost in there who plays with fire and gets himself burned. I pushed him into the wall to prevent him from setting fire again."
Everyone: “…”
Chai Yingying was a curious person, so she actually ran into the room to look for it. She found a burnt ghost from the cracked wall. Judging from the appearance of this ghost, it must have been burned to death in its lifetime, and gained the ability to control fire after death, and was trying to burn them to death just now.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, so Chai Yingying pulled the ghost out and gave him a beating.
Not only did she beat him herself, she also called out to Jiang Ze, "Jiang Xiaoze, beat him up."
Jiang Ze obediently rolled up his sleeves and went to beat the ghost.
When the other players saw this scene, they didn’t know what to say.
They felt that Gu Jiu and his group were quite strange. Things that were obviously very dangerous seemed to become easy as long as they followed them.
After beating up the arsonist ghost, the players suddenly calmed down, thinking that no matter what ghosts they encountered next, they would not have to worry about what they would do.
Because we have Gu Jiu, a very reliable young lady.
