Flirting with old enemies in escape games

Chapter 285

The two quickly shut up and listened carefully.

However, the old man didn't continue to talk about "otherwise" what would happen, but changed the subject and talked about the rules of this game.

"Ahem...cough...your task...is to keep watch...to guard the night here and make it normal...there are three floors here, and you must at least ensure that one of the floors within five days is lit up the next day When all the monsters are in place...otherwise the mission has failed...cough cough cough...if you haven't completed it until dawn on the fifth night...your mission has failed..."

This npc seems to be very old, speaking weakly and intermittently, out of breath, and speaking very slowly.

I don't think there is anything in a few sentences, but after talking too much, people can't help but think of a thin old man with white hair, a haggard face, and skin that is yellow and wrinkled like old bark.

He was lying in a dark and dirty corner, his skin was a strange bluish white, covered with wrinkles and dirt, his fingers were constantly trembling, every word he said exhausted all his strength, and the ending sound became more and more serious. It was getting lighter and lighter, as if his life was coming to an end.

So the players couldn't help but get nervous.

This feeling is very similar to the plot in TV dramas where a supporting character who knows important clues is about to die.

The audience waited in horror for him to tell the truth, staring at his mouth for fear that he would die before he finished speaking.

However, generally in this kind of plot, 90.00% of the time is bound to be a dog if you can't finish talking.

So Ji Wuhuan listened very carefully, firmly remembering every word he said.

I don't know if it's really because the npc is too old, and many of his words are incoherent.

In summary, there are only two important pieces of information.

1. As Ji Wuhuan guessed, this is the haunted house, and they are the night watchmen.

2. As the name suggests, the task of the night watchman is to watch the night and guard the night of the haunted house. The task goal is to ensure that the murderous thing is still in place when the day breaks, and from the word "all", it can be seen that there must be more than one murderous thing.

However, within five days, as long as any floor reaches this goal, it is enough.

Like Doll's Mansion, another instance of full teamwork.

But there are two similar doubts.

1. What is the murderer?where is it?

2. Since the goal of the mission is to keep the monster in place, under what circumstances will it move?

Regarding the first point, combined with the background of the haunted house, Ji Wuhuan believes that the murderous thing probably refers to certain things possessed by ghosts.

This kind of plot is very common in the plot routines of horror movies. For example, someone picked up something, but he didn't know that there was an unknown curse on it, so he attracted ghosts and suffered a catastrophe.

Perhaps this is why this place has become a haunted house.

As for the second point, there are two possibilities, either something will come out to snatch it, or it will move by itself.

Anyway, no matter which one it is... it's scary enough

The old man on the walkie-talkie paused and continued.

"And do you see that round white downlight at the workplace? Ahem...for the next five nights...you better keep them on at night..."

Make sure it stays on?What's the meaning?Will it perish?How else can we guarantee it?Of course Ji Wuhuan wanted to ask questions.

But obviously this walkie-talkie only has one-way call mode now. He tried to say hello twice, but there was no response, and he didn't hear the voices of other players.

The old man's voice was still intermittent: "...Finally, I would like to remind you that you'd better keep working in pairs, otherwise you might be... caught by it..."

May be it...?

Ji Wuhuan gripped the walkie-talkie slightly, and just as the players were guarding the walkie-talkie and listening eagerly, there was a click, and the green light on the walkie-talkie went off, and the dark corridor fell into deathly silence again.

So, what will be it? !

Zhang San couldn't help stamping his feet: "Fuck!!"

Appeared, the plot that the audience hates the most, the important plot, the half-speaking is gone!

Ji Wuhuan also cried out in his heart, what kind of chicken thief npc, the task, the task is not clear, even the rules are vague.

It's not as good as that big black-hearted rabbit in the doll's mansion!Although the sound is disgusting, at least its tongue is straight.

Just when Ji Wuhuan wanted to greet Rubik's family, a terrible thing happened!

Accompanied by a slap, the young man felt that his eyes suddenly went dark, as if he was blind, he couldn't see anything, he couldn't see his fingers.At the same time, an icy cold wind swept in from the corridor in front.

A layer of goosebumps instantly appeared on Ji Wuhuan's hairy arms, and the sobbing sounds of unknown creatures seemed to be mixed in the dark wind.

Is this blowing from the other end of the corridor?

No, in the darkness, they first heard three "knock knocks", as if someone tapped three times from the wall.

Then there was a "squeak", and a heavy wooden door seemed to be opened in the corridor not far away...

Ji Wuhuan turned on the flashlight as quickly as possible and pointed it in the direction where the sound came from. Sure enough, the wind didn't come from the other end of the corridor, but from a door!

--A crack slowly cracked on the originally smooth black wooden wall, and then the board seemed to be slowly pushed away from the inside to the outside by an invisible force.

There was a creaking sound as the boards rubbed against each other, and with the gradually increasing wind, a bloody hand wearing a white gauze glove suddenly protruded out of the bottomless darkness in the gap!

It gently grabbed the door panel, and its nails made a thrilling sound on the wooden board through the gloves. As the door was slowly opened, it was also slowly crawling out!

"Day!" Zhang San beside him couldn't help but exclaimed, turned around and wanted to run, but was grabbed by Ji Wuhuan: "I can't run, turn on the light!"

This reminded Zhang San, yes! The npc said that the lights cannot be extinguished!If it is off, turn it on as soon as possible, but the question is: "How the hell do you turn on the light?!"

"Look for it! There must be a switch!" Ji Wuhuan said and turned on the flashlight. He lifted the preserved egg and placed it on his shoulder so that it could stare behind him.

The flashlight quickly shone towards the corner behind him. The wall was as smooth as the floor, and he touched the wall with his hand, trying to find something like a mechanism hidden on it.

Zhang San also hurriedly came up to help, and the two of them, each with a flashlight, fumbled around the low cabinet on the floor and the wall to find the switch.

However, just like what I saw just now, there is no button or switch on the black wooden wall, and the two touched it from the ground to a height of 1m9 and a range of 1.5m to the left and right, and there was none!

how come?Could it be on the ceiling?No, although Ji Wuhuan can touch it by stepping on the low cabinet and jumping, but there must be girls among the players, and ordinary girls will definitely not be able to touch it even if they step on the cabinet.

So what exactly is it?

Ji Wuhuan tried his best to concentrate himself, but the continuous "squeak" sound behind him all reminded him that the door was still open, and the ghost inside... was about to crawl out.

Suddenly, the preserved egg on his shoulders hugged his neck tightly and made a "woo woo woo" sound, as if he was afraid and trembling.

Although the preserved egg looks small, cute, weak and helpless, it is actually very courageous, at least not afraid of ghosts.Because in theory, it can restrain the existence of ghosts, and the natural enemies of ghosts, naturally they will not be afraid.

So what is it that will scare it all?

Ji Wuhuan was about to turn his head to look, when he heard three knocking sounds from the left, followed by a "squeak--" from the corridor on the left. , There was also a gust of wind.

The young man broke out in a cold sweat suddenly, his heart sank fiercely, and when he looked over with the flashlight, he saw a door opened on the wall 3 meters away in the corridor on the left!

Fuck, another ghost is coming out!No wonder the preserved egg is afraid, because it can only deal with one ghost!

"Damn!" Zhang San also turned his head to take a look, his face turned pale with fright at the scene in front of him, the hand in the white gauze glove in front had already stretched out most of it, and the same pale shoulder was squeezing out, within 3 minutes In time, it will definitely come out!

He tremblingly asked: "Nonsense, what should we do! Where is the switch?!"

"My name is Xia Chedan!" At the critical moment of life and death, Ji Wuhuan was still maintaining his nonsense and his mind was still thinking fast.

Is the switch farther away?

No, it's impossible. The npc said that this is a job post. Their task is to keep watch at night. The ultimate goal is not to let the monsters "run away", which also includes not letting the lights go out... so it is impossible to set it to work at a distance The post is far away.

By the way, jobs!Ji Wuhuan had a flash of inspiration, and looked at the low cabinet. Is it really just a walkie-talkie?

"Zhang San, hold it!"

"Hold it?!" Zhang San glanced at the hand that kept crawling out 3 meters away, half of his shoulder was already squeezed out, and suddenly a bloody thing passed through the crack of the door.

The speed is very fast, but he can see clearly, it is clearly its neck, it has no head!There was only a bowl-sized wound on it!

"day!"

After just one glance, Zhang San doesn't want to take a second look. How can this be delayed?Take your head and drag it? !

Ji Wuhuan rushed to the low cabinet and tried to push it, but found that it was fixed on the ground and could not be moved or rotated.

He looked at the drawer below, and suddenly thought of something, he stretched out his hand and pulled open the bottom layer.

The moment the drawer was pulled out, the light on the top came on!

"Fuck!" The sudden brightness made Zhang Sanyi tremble with fright, and almost dropped the props in his hand.

When he looked up again, the two wooden doors that had been opened from the wall had been closed back silently, and the wall returned to a smooth and unmarked state, without any trace at all, and the white headless ghost disappeared.

"call--"

The two heaved a sigh of relief at the same time, and Zhang San almost collapsed on the ground. He leaned his back against the wall, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and cursed, "Oh, it's this broken drawer!"

Obviously, the drawer is the switch of the light. During the day, the light does not need a drawer to control, but at night, it is needed.

No wonder the npc told them to keep the lights on. From the looks of it, this corridor itself is not a haunted house, but just a passage connecting to the haunted house. As long as the lights in the corner are on, the door of the haunted house will not be opened, and the ghosts inside will not come out.

I don't know how many doors there are on this wall, and how many ghosts are inside.

Looking at the dark walls around him, thinking that there was only one wall separating him from those ghosts, Ji Wuhuan felt trembling, but fortunately, as long as they kept the lights in the four corners on at night, it would be fine. The drawer handles are gone.

It's easy to think about it that way.There are players on all sides, it is impossible not to find that the drawer is the switch, right?

Wait, four corners? !Ji Wuhuan suddenly realized something was wrong.

The npc said that there are 18 players in total, and the haunted house has three floors, in groups of two.

This means that there are only six people on each floor, and in groups of two, doesn't that mean...

"Damn, there is no one in the corner!" Ji Wuhuan called out.

"That's right! Damn it!!" Zhang San also reacted, pointing to the corridor on the left: "Over there!"

The two turned and ran.

They didn't realize that the drawers behind them were being slowly retracted little by little.

The author has something to say:

Yuanyuan: I will answer this question, just put three times horizontally in the middle of the drawer.

Low cabinet:? ? ?What did i do wrong

Pippi: Hey me~
