Chosen Prophet [Unlimited]

Four Corners Game, which is one of the famous ghost games.

The rules of the game are very simple. Four people stand in a corner of the room and wait for the game to start. They cannot turn back during the game, and the entire room must be in complete darkness.The best time is 12 midnight.

After the game starts, the game participants will walk from their own position to the next corner one by one, and pat the shoulder of the person standing in the next corner. The process can be clockwise or counterclockwise.

If four people play this game, there must be one position that is empty.Then every time someone encounters an empty corner, they will cough to indicate that there is no one here.It stands to reason that every round of the game, there will always be a coughing sound.But it is said that if the game continues, the cough will not be heard later.

That means... five people are playing the game.

The extra "person" is the recruited ghost.

These are the rules of the game that Duan Yi heard after entering Room 3-2.

About 2 minutes ago, he communicated with a guest in this room through a loudspeaker in the No. 2 car.

The guest was a little girl, and she directly asked the train attendant to play the four-corner game with her.

Upon hearing the name of this game, many players changed their expressions.

Because this game is too famous.Although they haven't played it and don't know the specific rules of the game, most players know that it is used to recruit ghosts.

After Duan Yi finished talking with the player, he took on the task of "recruiting ghosts" with the three NPCs.

Yun Hao and Bai Sinian followed him, trying to help figure out the customs clearance conditions as soon as possible.

But when a girl opened the door of No. 3-2 and looked at them through the crack of the door with a pair of bright eyes, she smiled and said: "Thank you for playing games with me! But we are only one person away! Which one of you will come?" How about with us?"

As a result, only Duan Yi finally entered the house.

Bai Sinian and Yun Hao couldn't even see what the inside of the room looked like, because the girl didn't open the door completely just now, and only poked most of her head out.

After entering the room, Duan Yi looked around while listening to the girl explaining the rules of the game. He found that the situation in the room was beyond his imagination.

This room is much larger than the room No. 1 next door. There is a large open area in the middle. It can be seen that there used to be a big sofa and a square coffee table there, but now these furniture have been pushed into the corner.

After removing the furniture, an empty area was formed in the middle of the house.In this area, they glued the cardboard shells on the ground to build four half-person-high walls, which can be regarded as the game space they prepared for themselves.

As for the left and right sides of the house, there are two bunk beds.

In other words, this room can sleep eight people in total.

Duan Yi noticed that four people were sleeping on the two bunk beds on the left.Their bodies were all facing away from him, and they were covered with quilts, so it was really difficult for Duan Yi to see their faces clearly.

As for the bunk beds on the right side, there is one bed neatly covered with nothing on it, and the other three beds are a bit messy, with many things placed on them.

Why this phenomenon can be formed is easy to speculate-three people have slept in three beds, and no one has moved the remaining bed.

In other words, including the four people on the left, there are a total of seven people living in this room.

At this moment, the three people living on the right side were not on the beds, but walked into the section surrounded by cardboard shells.

The little girl who opened the door to welcome Duan Yi into the house smiled slightly, supported the door they made of cardboard, and waved to Duan Yi: "Come on, come in, the game is about to start!"

Duan Yi glanced at the four people sleeping on the far left, and asked the little girl, "Aren't there four people over there? Why did you ask me to accompany you?"

The little girl smiled at Duan Yi and said: "Because they don't accompany us! They want to sleep and think we are noisy! I can only trouble you to accompany us! You come in first, and I will turn off the lights!"

Duan Yi frowned, but also walked in.

Half a person's tall cardboard shell surrounded a boxy shape.

Duan Yi noticed that the four corners were numbered with English letters, so he randomly went to the corner A where there was no one, and in the corner B in front of him stood a girl with twin ponytails.And in the corner of C further ahead of the girl, there stood a boy with a crew cut. He was carrying a small schoolbag and looked very silent.

After a while, there was a "pop", the headlights went out, and the whole room was plunged into darkness.

The girl who was bouncing around to turn off the light ran over with a "da da da", she held a flashlight, and Duan Yi could see that when she ran over, the light flickered in the night, which looked weird and strange funny.

This girl has short hair that matches her ears. She opened the door made of cardboard, walked in, and then closed the door.

"My name is Xiao Duan." She introduced Duan Yi with a smile, and then turned the flashlight on the girl with twin ponytails standing on the letter B.The girl was pale by the light of the flashlight, but she was expressionless, not as lively as a girl her age should be.

"Her name is Xiaoshuang." Xiao Duan smiled, and turned the flashlight on the only boy present, "His name is Xiaoping."

Finally, Xiao Duan turned the flashlight on Duan Yi: "What's your name?"

Duan Yi didn't say his name, but just pointed to the number plate hanging on his chest. "I am number seven."

"Understood. Number 7, Xiao Duan, Xiao Ping, and Xiao Shuang participated in the four-corner game. 3, 2..." Xiao Duan walked to the corner of D where there was no one, turned off the flashlight, and continued, "1—the game begins. I will start Let's do it!"

Why do a group of students who look about 14 years old play this kind of game?

Is it purely out of curiosity, or...they have a special idea, just want to attract a certain ghost?

Besides, the furnishings in this room look very old.

The students are all wearing school uniforms. The texture and style of the school uniforms are very old-fashioned.

The flashlight that Xiao Short used just now also has a sense of age.

If this story can correspond to the real world, it should have happened in the 80s or early 90s.

When Duan Yizheng was thinking this way, he heard a "da da" sound.

The four people not far away were still sleeping, only snoring slightly.

The place where the four-corner game was being played was very quiet, and the footsteps of the girl named Xiao Short were very special, so Duan Yi could clearly hear her footsteps.

After a while, Duan Yi felt that she had come behind him.

Duan Yi was tall, the little girl stood on tiptoe and patted his shoulder reluctantly.

During this period, Duan Yi could still feel her gently blowing out a breath behind his back.

Duan Yi frowned and didn't move, and then he could feel the little girl clenching her fist and hitting him lightly a few times, as if urging him to go to the next corner.

Duan Yi squinted his eyes and found that there was no light coming in from the window, so he really couldn't see anything clearly.

After a little thought, he still stepped forward and walked to the next corner.

Duan Yi's steps were very slow. He estimated the length of his steps, counted the number of steps and walked step by step. When he estimated that he should arrive, he stretched out his hand and patted forward, and it happened to touch the girl's ponytail.

Probably estimating her position, Duan Yi lowered his palm and patted her on the shoulder.

Next, Duan Yi Neng heard footsteps in front of him. It was the girl with ponytails named Xiao Shuang who went to the next corner and patted Xiao Ping on the shoulder after being patted on the shoulder by him.

The same situation continued for a total of six rounds, and Duan Yi was patted on the shoulder six times in total, as well as on other people's shoulders; in the seventh round, it was his turn to walk to an empty position, and when he found no one, he It's time to cough.

But he found that there was someone in front of him.

He stretched out his hand to explore, and as usual, he first touched the double ponytails, and then the palm of his hand went down to pat a person's shoulder.

Judging from the height and double ponytails, this person is undoubtedly Xiao Shuang.

——No one coughed this round, which means that there are people in every corner.

So, have the ghosts been called out?The ghost is not in the corner where I and Xiao Shuang are. In the other two corners, which one is there a ghost standing on?

Judging from the situation in the previous dungeon, the story this time will repeat itself.

So despite having a flashlight in his trouser pocket, Duan Yi doesn't want to break the flow of the plot rashly, but waits to see what happens.

After another round of the game, Xiao Short's voice sounded suddenly: "Have you appeared? Can you tell me, what's your name?"

The air was still quiet, and no one answered her words.

After a while, the boy named Xiaoping suddenly cried "Wow", the cry was extremely loud.

Seemingly infected by the emotion in his voice, Xiao Shuang was also frightened and screamed immediately.

"Hush! Don't scream, don't cry! Don't move! Remember the rules! Anyone who moves and runs to other places is considered a violation of the rules of the game! And anyone who violates the rules will be eaten by ghosts!"

This is Xiao Short's voice reminding the two friends.

Even so, Xiao Short's own voice could not hide the fear.

Her voice was trembling, and Duan Yi could hear her trembling all over.

Coughing a few times, Xiao Duan continued to try to ask the ghost: "Then... that... are you unwilling to answer us? Are you a good ghost or a bad ghost? Some people say... that if we find a good ghost, we can Talk to him. If...if it's a bad guy, then we've got to keep playing this game..."

Duan Yi interrupted her: "Keep going until the ghost is bored and leaves, and we can hear coughing again, right?"

"Yes." Xiao Duan replied, "That's it! It doesn't want to answer our words, so let's continue...don't stop...don't stop...we continue, we must continue, otherwise we will all die. Until...until it leave us..."

So the game continues.

The surroundings are still very quiet, except for the sound of footsteps and the collision of clothing materials, nothing can be heard.

No one coughed anymore, Duan Yi knew that the person who photographed him, or the person he photographed, might have become the extra "ghost".

Everything that is happening now, in this dark environment where you can't see your fingers, is an extreme test of the player's psychological strength.But because Duan Yi already had some guesses, he didn't feel scared at all.He just wanted to know what happened next, would it fit his imagination, and what would be the final mission to clear the game.

After a while, Duan Yi suddenly found himself in an empty corner.

He stretched out his hand to check, but there was no one in front of him.

So he coughed.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Duan's rather joyful voice came over. "Hey?! Did we send the ghost away!"

The male voice called Xiaoping rarely spoke: "Okay, it seems to be."

"Huh... Although it failed to talk to us, we didn't achieve our goal, but luckily we are safe..." Xiao Short exhaled, "Then I'll turn on the light!"

Duan Yi stretched out his hand and casually touched the paper shell beside him, feeling that something was a little strange.

According to his imagination about the plot of this level, he should hear some strange voices.

But he didn't hear anything unusual.

Frowning slightly, Duan Yi heard a short sound running to turn on the light. "Hey, the light is broken! Why can't it be turned on?! Didn't the ghost leave?!"

Hearing this, Duan Yi felt even more strange.

Everyone played the four-corner game in the area framed by the cardboard shell, and everyone kept turning in circles during the process.

In this way, unless you count intentionally, after playing for a long time, you don't actually know where you are.

So how can Xiao Short know exactly where the switch is and find it very quickly without turning on the flashlight?

"The light is broken...too bad...the flashlight! Who has a flashlight!" Xiao Short asked in a panic.

What about her own flashlight?Didn't she hold one before the game started?She should have put it directly in her pocket.

Duan Yi thought so, and took out his own flashlight. "I have it here."

Holding up the flashlight, Duan Yi looked around. Not far away, under the light switch next to the carriage door, there stood a panicked little boy; diagonally opposite Duan Yi was the boy Xiaoping. There were still traces of tears on his face. terrified.But Xiao Shuang, the girl with double ponytails who was originally in front of Duan Yi, disappeared.

Xiao Shuang disappeared into the corner, but appeared in the middle of the house.

——She fell head down in a pool of blood, with a dagger stabbed firmly behind her back, and she was no longer breathing.

It all looked like four people were playing a four-corner game, and the ghost was found out halfway, and the ghost played the game with everyone quietly, and then it killed a person.

Therefore, after playing the game, everyone found that the coughing sound reappeared, not because the ghost left, but because a person died.

After killing the person, the ghost did not leave, and continued to play games with the other three living people.There were constant coughing sounds, and there was a coughing sound, but it was made by ghosts, not the three living people.

The three living people played a few more rounds of the game, and there were coughing sounds throughout the process.

They let go of their hearts, thinking that the ghost was gone, so they decided to end the game.

As a result, Xiao Duan left the area delineated by the game and ran to turn on the light.

But in the end everyone found the dead man.

Then... the ghost that was summoned, it disappeared before the lights were turned on; or... it never left at all, but until now, it has been standing by the side silently watching everyone, but everyone Can't see it?

——Is that the truth?

Duan Yi moved the flashlight away from Xiaoshuang's body, and then he directed the flashlight to the far left side of the house.

On the two bunk beds on the left, four bodies were heaving up and down, and their snoring was the same as before, as if they had never woken up and didn't care about what happened here.

And at this time, with a "snap", the headlights finally turned on.

"Great, the light is fixed—ahh!!!"

It's a short sound.

I saw her running towards Xiao Shuang, her face was as white as paper because of excessive fear. "What happened to Xiao Shuang! How could it be like this?! Is the ghost, the ghost still there?! It's in this room?!"

Of course Xiaoping couldn't answer. He sat down on the ground and started crying again.

Xiao Duan looked around, and finally had to ask Duan Yi for help.

Running to Duan Yi, she grabbed his arm. "Call the police for us! Go and call the police for us!"

The NPC is letting himself out of this copy, and it seems that this round of plot is over.

But Duan Yi didn't leave immediately, he looked at Xiaoshuang carefully again, and found that the blood on her back started to flow again, and gradually spread, with the tendency to swallow the entire space.

This phenomenon confirms Duan Yi's guess—the dungeon plot is coming to an end.

Seizing the last opportunity, Duan Yi looked at Xiao Duan, and asked almost sternly: "Why do you want to play this game? What do you call the soul for? What do you want from the ghost?!"

Xiao Duan replied with some collapse: "I just want to get the grades... The three of us just finished the high school entrance examination, and we just want the ghost to tell us how many points we got in the test... Woooooo, I didn't expect Xiaoshuang to die! Ghost is Not still... Otherwise, don't run away..."

Xiao Duan suddenly jumped up and grabbed Duan Yi's neck tightly. "Don't go to the police! You left...the ghosts will kill us! You stay and protect us!"

Duan Yi knew that this dungeon was undergoing some kind of countdown, if he stayed, he would be swallowed by the blood.

So he pushed Xiao Short away and left the room before being stained with blood.

The door of Room 3-2 was opened and closed. After closing the door, Duan Yi leaned his back against the door and let out a breath. He saw the players headed by Yun Hao and Bai Sinian crowded in the corridor.Seeing him coming out, they all looked over immediately. "What's the story this time?"
