Progress has stalled. So far, almost all inductions have hit a wall and no ghost has been successful.
The door seemed to be falling from the sky, firmly blocking the way in front of him and providing excellent protection.
Although most of the players and the ghosts have fallen out; the players directly pointed out how unreliable their role-playing was and how poor their acting was... But from Xiao Ming's perspective, they still maintain a fairly harmonious state.
He seemed to be trembling slightly at the urging of "Yuan Yuxue" outside the door. He was very nervous and seemed to be wavering at any time to obey its orders, but his feet never moved. His body was firmly entrenched in the quilt, lying very comfortably, but his voice was timid and fearful: "Do you have to open the door now? What's the matter, can you not tell me tomorrow?"
Even with this fairly legitimate request, he acted extremely guilty, leaving plenty of room for rebuttal.
Then "Yuan Yuxue" explained what was happening again, and said to him in a very serious tone: "I'm afraid we won't be able to wait until dawn, so we can only rely on ourselves to solve it. You open the door first, we need to discuss it."
Xiao Ming responded with an “oh oh oh”, but his body didn’t move at all, still lying on the bed, even slightly digging into the quilt, revealing a pair of eyes: “But I’m scared, my legs are so weak that I can’t stand up, I can’t move at all…”
The ghost outside the door: “…”
It seemed to be speechless for a moment because of Xiao Ming's reason. It froze for a moment before continuing, "It's okay. Don't be afraid. Try to stand up and open the door. Only then can I protect you."
“I’m trying.”
Xiao Ming seemed to be easily persuaded and spoke.
The ghost outside waited anxiously for a while, but when he saw the door not open, he couldn't help but urge: "Have you tried your best?"
"Standing up, getting closer."
Yuan Yuxue's tone became more fierce, with a hint of threat: "If you keep dragging your feet like this, I'll have to find someone else first. The situation is very tense."
Such a strong tone is extremely easy to manipulate other people's thoughts.
Especially for someone like Xiao Ming who has an unstable personality, he obeyed almost immediately. He seemed to be frightened to the point of crying, and his voice was slightly choked: "Don't leave. Wait for me a little longer, I'll be fine soon."
The ghost outside the door seemed to sense his cooperation and was slightly satisfied, so he waited patiently for a while.
After a few minutes, Xiao Ming suddenly replied: "No, my legs are weak from fear. I can't even do such a difficult action as getting out of bed!"
He cried and said, "Yuan Yuxue, why don't you go find someone else first, let me take a break, and come back when my legs are no longer weak."
“… ?!”
If Xiao Ming really opened the door now, he would have the opportunity to see the other person's face which was as dark as a dark cloud.
But at this moment, "Yuan Yuxue" outside the door seemed to stiffen a little, and said with an indescribable bitterness in her voice, almost gritting her teeth: "… No, it's okay. I'll just wait for you for a while."
They practiced Tai Chi for a while. Xiao Ming was very sincere and his tone was cooperative, as if he was threatened to compromise and do anything at any time. But his body was very honest and he never came down.
