The rebellious daughter is spoiled by the disabled boss
Chapter 38 Entering the Village
The assistant director was extremely anxious and quickly asked someone to track down their current location. However, the strange thing was that the village they entered could not even be found on the map, let alone its location.
"It's over, it's over. There's no chance of getting a year-end bonus this year."
The assistant director sighed as he looked at the screen, "I just hope nothing happens to them." He couldn't afford to offend any of these people.
The scene switched, and they had entered the village. There was a road made of bluestone slabs that stretched as far as the eye could see.
"It's so weird here."
Meng Ziyi approached Yang Mi fearfully, "Sister Mi, will the production team suddenly arrange someone to jump out and scare me?"
Yang Mi had participated in many escape room shows before and was used to this kind of tactics, so they didn't scare her at all.
"It's okay, it's all pretended by the staff, don't be afraid."
As he walked further forward, an old voice came from not far away, "Who are you?"
Everyone was startled and looked towards the source of the sound.
An old man with a hunched figure, leaning on a cane, walked out step by step from the darkness of the thatched house.
Song Ci'an walked over politely and asked, "Old man, we are just passing by. Can we stay here for one night?"
The old man raised his drooping eyelids and said, "We can't live here. Let's leave quickly before it gets dark."
Song Ci'an was a little embarrassed, "Why can't I live here?"
"Anyway, we can't stay here, so let's go."
The old man didn't even bother to explain a word to Song Ci'an. He turned around and walked towards the bluestone road.
Song Ci'an was puzzled, "Maybe I opened the wrong place, let's go back first."
But when they walked back, they found that the car parked at the entrance of the village was gone, the sky was getting darker, and in the blink of an eye it was completely dark.
Meng Ziyi's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized, "This must be the location of the show we are going to participate in. The production team took the opportunity to drive away when we entered the village. They will only come back to pick us up after we complete the task and find the props."
Jiang Yuchu curled the corners of her lips and shook her head helplessly. It was obvious that this was not the staff's doing. Meng Ziyi was still naive.
However, Meng Ziyi's words were unanimously recognized by the others. They all excitedly returned to the village and were still choosing a slightly cleaner house to live in.
Jiang Yuechu stayed the longest. She was not in a hurry and reached out to the entrance of the village. An invisible barrier blocked them in the village.
"There is indeed a problem."
The old man who just spoke must have lived here all the time and knew the clues, so he urged them to leave the village before dark. Once dark, they would not be able to get out.
The car must still be at the entrance of the village.
"Jiang Yuechu, come quickly, they have almost finished picking out the houses." Meng Ziyi stood not far away and waved at Jiang Yuechu.
Jiang Yuechu nodded and ran over.
In the darkness of the night, lights were on at the end of the bluestone road, and no one was sleepy or anxious.
"Look, there's a light over there!" Meng Ziyi raised her hand and pointed at the big house at the end and shouted, "There must be an NPC issuing quests inside. Why don't we go over and take a look?"
"Okay, I want to see it too." Yang Mi said.
There was a human-shaped sculpture standing at the door of the big house. They had not been there before, so they had not seen it. In the cover of night, the human figure looked a bit weird.
Meng Ziyi was timid but brave, so she raised her hand and knocked on the door. "Hello, is anyone there?"
With a creaky sound, the door was opened from the inside. The old man they had met earlier was not surprised to see them.
The old man opened the door and made way for them to enter.
The big house was very different from the other houses. There was not even a table, chair or bench in the spacious hall, but only an empty coffin. The second floor was pitch black and it was impossible to see what was inside.
Jiang Yuechu looked around and set his eyes on a spirit tablet placed in the middle of the hall.
"My wife Ling'er."
Just four simple words, without even the date of birth or death.
"Did you find anything?"
Song Ci'an asked in a low voice.
Jiang Yuechu shook her head. "Not yet. How about you?"
"No." Song Ci'an felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart, "It feels strange here, but I can't tell what's strange about it."
Jiang Yuechu did not answer him. She felt something was wrong as soon as she entered the village.
"Drink tea."
The old man was carrying a pot of boiling tea. Seeing that there was no table in the hall, he moved a small stool and placed it in the middle, and then brought a pile of bowls.
Several people were already thirsty and had to drink two bowls to relieve their thirst.
Meng Ziyi smacked her lips, "It quenches my thirst. I've never drunk such delicious water outside. Old man, is this tea made from some flower?"
The old man glanced at Meng Ziyi, the meaning in his eyes was obscure, "If it tastes good, drink more."
"Old man, are there no other villagers here besides you?" Meng Ziyi asked.
The old man's voice was hoarse and old. "They will come out at night."
"You'll come out at night?"
Meng Ziyi couldn't help but rub his hands, "NPCs will definitely come out to scare us at night. I'm suddenly looking forward to it. I wonder what methods they will use."
"You'll find out tonight."
The old man kept repeating the same sentence and stopped talking when asked further questions.
They walked around the big house and found it boring, so they went back to the rooms they had chosen when they first entered the village to rest.
Jiang Yuechu sat in the room and couldn't fall asleep. Song Ci'an took out a piece of candy from his pocket and handed it to her, "Don't be so nervous, it's just a game."
Jiang Yuechu lowered her eyes to glance at the candy in his palm, "Song Ci'an, I'm not a child anymore."
Song Ci'an understood what she meant and secretly took his hand back, "It's getting late, let's go to bed first. Even if there are NPCs, they will wait until we fall asleep before coming."
"Ah."
There were two beds in the room, and the only things they could cover themselves with were the clothes they were wearing. After nightfall, the temperature here was inexplicably high, and it felt very hot even without covering themselves with anything.
Jiang Yuechu couldn't sleep and could hear occasional giggling sounds in her ears.
It’s best if the person outside the house is actually a staff member, otherwise they may have entered another space.
"what!"
The sharp corners of a female voice cut through the night sky, startling everyone.
Jiang Yuchu sat up suddenly, the door was kicked open, and Song Yitian rushed into the room with disheveled clothes and messy hair, tears on his face.
"what are you doing?"
Jiang Yuechu avoided Song Yitan's outstretched hand as if he were avoiding the plague.
Song Yitian's voice was trembling, and he was shaking with fear. "I, there's someone in my room, there's someone!"
Jiang Yuechu was speechless. "You and Tao Runyan are a couple, what's wrong with that? Yelling in the middle of the night, do you have any manners?"
"No, it's not Tao Runyan!"
