Fortunately, Tao Runyan was just knocked unconscious by something and was not seriously injured. But there are so many people here, why did they choose him?

"Do you remember how you got here?" Jiang Yuechu asked.

Tao Runyan's mind went blank. He touched the back of his head and shook his head, "I don't remember."

Jiang Yuechu looked around and thought to himself that this village was hiding an incredible secret.

"Let's go back and gather first. We'll talk about anything later when you remember it."

When I brought Tao Runyan back, the originally spacious room was crowded with people, and people from other rooms also gathered in this room.

Everyone looked sleepy, probably because the knocking sound kept them awake.

"Did any of you see who was knocking at the door?"

Everyone shook their heads; no one saw it.

This is difficult to handle.

For some reason, Jiang Yuechu couldn't feel any Yin energy here, and couldn't tell whether the other party was a human or a ghost. The damn system also disappeared when she came back.

It seems she has to rely on herself.

Jiang Yuechu arranged the people in the room so that they could barely fit everyone.

"Everyone, take a good rest first. It's already so late and probably no one will knock on the door again. Since you are all scared, just stay together for now."

Meng Ziyi's voice trembled, and she couldn't help but feel scared when she thought of what she had seen before, "I, I seemed to see a woman, a woman knocking on the door."

"Woman? Are you sure?" Jiang Yuechu asked.

Meng Ziyi recalled and nodded, "Well, at that time, I vaguely saw a woman standing at the door through the moonlight, raising her hand and knocking on the door one after another."

Jiang Yuechu frowned, "That's not right. If it was a woman knocking on the door, how could she knock on all of our doors at the same time?"

"Could it be, could it be a staff member?"

Meng Ziyi swallowed and said tentatively: "Isn't this a haunted house set up by the program team? Maybe the staff is knocking on the door to scare us."

Jiang Yuchu didn't say it explicitly, but her intuition told her that it couldn't be as simple as a staff member.

"Rest first, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Jiang Yuechu found a place in the corner and sat down. When he leaned back, he felt something soft. He glanced sideways and saw that it was Tao Runyan.

He had placed his arms behind her back at some point, forming a human cushion when she leaned down.

The most important thing for her now is to rest and not think too much.

'Boom boom, boom boom.'

There were two knocks on the door, and everyone in the room sat up instantly in shock.

"Did you hear that? That voice is coming again!"

The one who reacted the most was Meng Ziyi. She now thought that the person knocking on the door was a staff member, and the panic in her eyes had long disappeared, replaced by excitement.

"This is my first time participating in such an exciting haunted house adventure! It's so much fun!"

Meng Ziyi's eyes widened, she walked to the door excitedly and opened it skillfully.

Meng Ziyi was stunned on the spot. A chilly air came in through the door and the excited expression on her face disappeared.

When Jiang Yuechu raised her eyes, she saw red everywhere. A bride in a bright red wedding dress and a red veil was standing at the door. Her body was swaying like a tumbler, rocking left and right.

Jiang Yuechu's heart skipped a beat, and he was about to stand up when he heard Tao Runyan's voice, "It's just a staff member. There's no need to be so nervous."

"I'm afraid, it's not that simple."

"I, I want to find my husband. Have you seen my husband?" A hoarse and choked voice came from the ghost bride's throat, but the tone at the end was particularly gentle.

Meng Ziyi turned her head stiffly, "What should I do? Did I trigger some hidden plot? Does anyone know how to answer?"

The female ghost asked people questions, but she could neither shut her mouth nor answer.

Keeping your mouth shut and not answering is tantamount to contempt, and you will be killed on the spot. If you answer, you have to give an answer that satisfies her, otherwise you have to do it according to her requirements, and failing to do so will also result in death.

However, this female ghost did not directly attack Meng Ziyi, and she probably did not have much hostility towards the people in the room. She just wanted to find her husband. If she made up a lie to lie to her, the consequences would probably be even more serious.

We need to delay the time of the female ghost's anger, but also not let them be too scared.

Jiang Yuechu stepped forward and said softly, "Calm down first. We can help you find your husband, but you must also look for him yourself. There is strength in numbers, and we will definitely find him."

The female ghost twisted her neck stiffly, and her head covered with a big red veil moved slowly. Even so, Jiang Yuechu could feel that gaze was staring at her.

"Will you really help me find a husband?"

"Of course!"

Meng Ziyi answered first. She was sure that the person in front of her was a staff member. Since she had triggered the hidden plot, she had to follow the plot. This was the rule she had learned from watching escape rooms before.

Hearing this, Jiang Yuechu cursed Meng Ziyi a thousand times in her heart.

What's in front of you?

It's a resentful ghost who has been dead for at least several decades! If you can't agree to the ghost's request, everyone will be buried with her! How can she be so bold?

Meng Ziyi didn't know what she had said wrong, and tilted her head to look curiously at what was under the red veil.

"Is it a girl pretending to be him?"

As Meng Ziyi spoke, she stretched out her hand. Jiang Yuechu didn't even have time to stop her. She could only watch her take off the red veil.

"what!!"

Meng Ziyi let out a shrill scream, staggered back a few steps and fell to the ground.

After the red veil was lifted, a head covered with flesh and blood was revealed. Half of the eyeballs were hanging in the empty pupils, and many maggots could be seen moving around in the cracks of the skull.

"Ugh~"

Meng Ziyi covered her mouth and made vomiting sounds. She hadn't eaten anything in the first place, and now she was about to vomit out even the jaundice water.

The room was filled with the stench of rotting flesh, making it hard to open one's eyes.

The female ghost slowly twisted her neck, and even though she had no eyes, one could feel that she was looking at Meng Ziyi.

"I, I didn't mean it."

Meng Ziyi stepped back in fear, her voice trembling.

Jiang Yuechu stood in front of Meng Ziyi when she saw this, staring at the female ghost in front of her.

When people die, they become ghosts, and their obsessions are born.

The female ghost's obsession was not to kill people, but she wanted to be on the safe side.

"We will definitely help you find your husband."

The negative energy around the female ghost dissipated a little. She turned her body, making a creaking sound, and walked out staggeringly.

"Under the peach tree, in the Peach Blossom Temple, I will wait for you, wait for you to come back."
