Qi Xiu suggested climbing up to the top floor quickly, but was strongly opposed by others. But their opposition was useless, as the one who really had the final say was Chen Xiao, who was holding the safety hammer.

They all looked at Chen Xiao and analyzed with him the dangers of continuing to climb the stairs.

Chen Xiao held the safety hammer tightly, frowned slightly, and seemed a little hesitant. He looked at Qi Xiu:

"Qi Banxian, do we have to climb the stairs?"

Unlike the anxiety of the people around him, Qi Xiu was still very calm. He said with sharp eyes:

"The castle structure diagram in the lobby on the first floor shows that the top floor of this castle is a conical spire, which forms an enclosed structure with the main tower and has no windows. Therefore, the top floor is the safest place."

"So what if it's the safest? We are quite safe now. If we really go to the top floor, half of us here will probably die!" Lin Yi immediately retorted.

"Yes, and we can go to the top floor at any time, right? We just climbed the stairs once, and we are in very bad condition now. It doesn't matter if we wait a little longer. Maybe Jiang Yan will solve the evil spirit in a while." Zhang Mei dissuaded.

"Who told you that we can go to the top floor at any time?" Qi Xiu's face sank, and his tone became cold.

"The rain will pour into the stairs from the stone window. There will be more and more rain in the stairs. When the rain blocks the stairs, we will never be able to go up again, so we must climb the stairs as soon as possible. Make a decision quickly, Chen Xiao."

Qi Xiu cast a cold gaze at Chen Xiao, waiting for his answer, and so did the others.

This made Chen Xiao feel great pressure, and the safety hammer in his hand seemed to become even hotter.

He looked at Zhao Qing, wanting to hear her opinion:

"What do you think, Zhao Qing?"

Zhao Qing frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then said firmly:

"I believe Qi Xiu, go to the top floor."

She chose to believe Qi Xiu, because Jiang Yan had also asked for Qi Xiu's opinion before, and she believed Jiang Yan.

"Okay, let's go to the top floor!" Chen Xiao decided immediately.

In his mind, the people he had to protect were Qi Xiu and Zhao Qing. Now that both of them chose to go to the top floor, he naturally had no objection.

It was different for the others. They immediately became excited and continued to dissuade Chen Xiao.

The hall was in chaos, with discussions and curses.

Chen Xiao and others went upstairs firmly, and the others immediately stopped them. Some people gathered together to block his way, some took the opportunity to push him, and some even almost rushed over to grab the safety hammer.

At this moment, someone shouted:

"Why is there so much water here!"

As soon as this was said, everyone immediately looked at the place where the man pointed, and saw that there was some water at the edge of the hall, and the water was spreading rapidly.

"Impossible, how could the rain pour into the hall!"

"Get away from the water!"

"Oh no, I'm in trouble!"

The water spread very quickly, and some tourists on the edge of the crowd accidentally got wet with rain. The killing rules were triggered, and more than a dozen pale babies appeared in the hall.

"It is estimated that the water system of the park was destroyed, and the rain flowed in along the waterway." Qi Xiu quickly analyzed the reason.

Obviously, the power of this evil ghost should have increased a lot. Now it is not just as simple as raining, the waterway of the park is controlled by the evil ghost.

"Then hurry up, in this way, even if the water level does not rise, we will die in the castle." Chen Xiao immediately broke through the crowd and rushed up the stairs.

Others also realized that this floor was no longer safe. Although climbing the stairs was risky, they had no choice.

So, hundreds of people rushed to the stairs one after another.

In order to restore the style of the castle, the stairs were built with rough raw stones, and the surrounding walls were also cold and damp.

The stairs rose in a spiral and were very narrow, with a width that could only accommodate three people.

Hundreds of people went upstairs together, and the length of the crowd was more than ten meters.

Chen Xiao, Qi Xiu and Zhao Qing walked in front.

There was no light in the stairs, and it was very dark. If they were not careful, they would step on the empty space or trip on the stone steps. They could only grope forward by holding on to the cold and wet walls.

There were thunders outside the wall, and occasionally a flash of lightning flashed, illuminating the entire staircase.

After walking for a few minutes, everyone stopped because they were about to face the first test.

They came to the first stone window.

The square stone window was only half a meter in size. Rainwater hit the opposite wall through the stone window. Some rainwater had accumulated on the nearby steps.

Not only that, the rain would splash on the wall.

If they wanted to pass this stone window safely, they must not step on the water or be splashed by raindrops.

"Let's go." Chen Xiao turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone and walked over cautiously.

Zhao Qing followed him closely, and Qi Xiu was behind him.

The three of them stuck to the wall where the stone window was, carefullyMoved past swiftly.

It was easy to avoid the water, but it was not so easy to avoid the splashing raindrops.

However, the wind outside was relatively light now, and the rain was not so much, so the three of them passed the stone window without any danger.

The people behind also passed the stone window in the same way, and soon dozens of people passed successfully.

But they did not dare to be careless, because as long as someone was drenched by the rain, it would attract those pale babies, and the stairs would most likely be blocked by the water.

"Boom!"

A deafening thunder came, and the lightning made the entire corridor pale.

The person who was passing the stone window now was the bank clerk who had asked Jiang Yan a question before. She was originally timid, and now she was frightened by the thunder and lightning just now, and her body was unstable.

A drop of cold rain splashed on her fair face.

"Is this... rain?" She was suddenly terrified, quickly wiped the rain off her face, and then rushed through the stone window like crazy.

During this period, the pale baby did not appear.

"It's okay, I'm here~" She panted, with a look of joy after surviving the disaster on her face.

But suddenly, she felt a little heavy on her back, as if something was lying on her back.

"No way..." She turned her head in horror.

A baby's head was lying on her shoulder, and its dark eyes just looked at her.

"No~"

Just as she was about to scream, her tongue swelled strangely, her skin began to ooze, and finally she fell to the ground and died.

The pale baby sat on her body. Waving its chubby little hands, it made a "ya ya ya" laugh.

The people behind looked at the baby in horror, and they didn't dare to move forward.

They knew that from the moment this baby appeared, this corridor would never be passed again.

They were doomed.

"Let's go, they are doomed." Qi Xiu glanced at the tourists behind the stone window and said in a cold tone.

"Okay." Chen Xiao had no choice. Even if he had a safety hammer, he couldn't save them.

However, before he took a few steps, Qi Xiu suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiao was a little surprised.

"There's water." Qi Xiu said with a gloomy face.

"Water?" Chen Xiao looked at the stairs in front of him.

A white lightning flashed across, illuminating the scene in front.

On the stairs in front, a small pool of water suddenly appeared there. What was even more strange was that there was a drizzle of rain falling on the edge of the pool.

It seemed as if there was an invisible person standing there with an umbrella...
